Ratio of activated p38 MAPK. The ratio of activated (phosphorylated to total p/t p38MAPK) at three different time points. The baseline ratio p/t p38MAPK is represented by biopsy 1. Biopsy 2 represents the ratio directly after application of the preconditioning stimulus, and the biopsy 3 is at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass. Values presented in mean ± SD. No significant differences were observed in the ratios of p/t p38MAPK at different time points in the controls (white dots), after preconditioning with helium (He-Pre; light blue dots) or sevoflurane (APC; orange dots), or after postconditioning (He-Post; grey dots) or the combination of helium pre- and postconditioning (He-PP; dark blue dots, Kruskall Wallis rank sum analysis)
