Table 2 Haematocrit, Cardiac Ventricular Ratios and Left Lung Volume in Control and Hypoxic Conditions

From: Placenta growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor B expression in the hypoxic lung

  Control Hypoxic
Haematocrit (%) 44.8 (1.1) 61.0 (0.4) *
Ventricular Ratio 0.25 (0.01) 0.4 (0.02) *
Left Lung Volume (ml) 3.43 (0.12) 4.14 (0.27) *
  1. Values are mean (±SEM). Ventricular ratio is the ratio between the weight of the right ventricle and the left ventricle plus septum. * indicates a significant difference from matched control (P < 0.05, T-Test)
