Table 1 Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin (T-Bil), direct bilirubin (D-Bil), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), hyaluronic acid (HA) levels, and platelet counts 5 h after reperfusion: Serum AST, ALT, T-Bil, D-Bil, LDH, and HA were significantly elevated in the ischemia-reperfusion (IR) group compared with those of the sham group. Serum AST and D-Bil levels were significantly lower in the IR+milrinone group than in the IR group. Platelet counts were significantly decreased in the IR group as compared with those of the sham group. Platelet counts were significantly higher in the IR+milrinone group than in the IR group.
