Only ISO improved the recovery of the ischemic myocardium during reperfusion. The effects of PRP were global in nature and involved compensatory hypercontractile state in nonischemic regions of the myocardium. Implication. PRP and ISO protect the heart against an ischemic injury, but only ISO preserves the function of the myocardium at the ischemic region. The survival rate of the PRP-treated group versus the ISO-treated group supports the claim that PRP has smaller contribution to recovery from myocardial ischemia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
