Fig. 1From: Variation of perioperative plasma mitochondrial DNA correlate with peak inflammatory cytokines caused by cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypassPerioperative plasma mtDNA in CABG with CPB. Plasma mtDNA levels after the end of CPB were significantly higher than T1. The peak value of plasma mtDNA appeared at T4. Level of plasma mtDNA at T5 was lower than T4, but still higher than T1. *P < 0.05 vs. T1. #P < 0.05 vs. T4Back to article page
