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)
