Inflammatory Mediators in Adults Undergoing Cardiopulmonary Bypass: Comparison of Centrifugal and Roller Pumps Saeed Ashraf, John Butler, Yi Tian, Dahlia Cowan, Simon Lintin, Nigel R Saunders, Kevin G Watterson, Paul G Martin The Annals of Thoracic Surgery Volume 65, Issue 2, Pages 480-484 (February 1998) DOI: 10.1016/S0003-4975(97)01349-0
Fig. 1 Changes in the circulating median concentration of interleukin-6 (IL-6) with time in patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a roller (squares) or a centrifugal (triangles) pump. Error bars relate to the 25th to 75th interquartile range. (post-p = after protamine administration.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1998 65, 480-484DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)01349-0)
Fig. 2 Changes in the circulating median concentration of interleukin-8 (IL-8) with time in patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a roller (squares) or a centrifugal (triangles) pump. Error bars relate to the 25th to 75th interquartile range. (NS = not significant; post-p = after protamine administration.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1998 65, 480-484DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)01349-0)
Fig. 3 Changes in the circulating median concentration of terminal complement (C5b-9) with time in patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a roller (squares) or a centrifugal (triangles) pump. Error bars relate to the 25th to 75th interquartile range. (post-p = after protamine administration.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1998 65, 480-484DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)01349-0)
Fig. 4 Changes in the circulating concentration of elastase with time in patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a roller (squares) or a centrifugal (triangles) pump. Error bars relate to the 25th to 75th interquartile range. (post-p = after protamine administration.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1998 65, 480-484DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)01349-0)
Fig. 5 Correlation of circulating peak levels of terminal complement (C5b-9) and elastase in the centrifugal group. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1998 65, 480-484DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)01349-0)
