Evaluation of small intestine apoptosis after haemorrhage followed by volume replacement – a preliminary study.

Furthermore, reperfusion exacerbates abnormal intestinal apoptosis. In this study, the apoptotic index (AI) in the small intestine after haemorrhage and volume replacement with Ringer´s solution was evaluated, in a pig modelengApoptosisIntestinal injuryIschemiaReperfusionApoptotic indexHaemorrhageVolume replacementRinger´s solutionPig modelconference object
