Figures & data
Figure 1. arterial pressure record upon non-pulsatile and pulsed perfusion of the isolated kidney as described in material and methods.
Figure 2. Renal perfusate flow (RPF) upon isolated perfusion of freshly excised (sham) or previously cold stored (CS) kidneys upon non-pulsatile or pulsatile (puls.) perfusion conditions. (*: p < .05 vs respective non-pulsatile perfusion).
Figure 3. Perfusate levels of the vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 (ET-1) and endogenous vasodilator NO, as well as their ratio upon isolated perfusion of freshly excised (sham) or previously cold stored (CS) kidneys upon non-pulsatile or pulsatile (puls.) perfusion conditions. (*: p < .05 vs respective non-pulsatile perfusion).
Figure 4. Glomerular (clearance of creatinine) and tubular (fractional excretion of sodium- FE-Na) renal function upon isolated perfusion of freshly excised (sham) or previously cold stored (CS) kidneys upon non-pulsatile or pulsatile (puls.) perfusion conditions. (*: p < .05 vs respective non-pulsatile perfusion).
