Figure 9 Survival analysis (hepatic ischemia-reperfusion [IR] injury model with 45-min whole hepatic ischemia): Six of the 13 rats in the IR group died within 24 h after surgery. The 7-day survival rate of the IR group was 53.8%. Twelve of the 13 rats in the IR+milrinone group survived, and the 7-day survival rate was increased significantly to 92.3% (P=0.03).
