3 Fig 2 Box plots show the extent of skeletal muscle edema and necrosis determined by the ratio of the wet to dry tissue weight of the gastrocnemius sections. Whiskers show quartile ranges. *P < .05, ‡P < .01, and †P < .001. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2007 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 Box plots show the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in the experimental groups. Whiskers show quartile ranges. *P < .05, ‡P < .01.
