  1. Animal groups include control (C, n = 6), hemorrhage with LR resuscitation (LR, n = 6), and hemorrhage with normal saline resuscitation (NS, n = 6). Data are expressed as means ± SE.
  2. *p < 0.05 compared to corresponding baseline values within the group; §p < 0.05 LR vs NS groups; and p < 0.05 compared to corresponding control values.
