Objectives To design and establish a model to examine in left renal tissue integrity on day 2 only (P<0.001), whereas RI for 40 min caused significant left renal whether brief periods of renal artery occlusion (ischaemic preconditioning, IP) confers protection dysfunction on day 0, day 2 and day 9 (P∏0.01). For a given duration of ischaemia, there was no significant from the eÂects of a subsequent period of ischaemia and reperfusion of the rat kidney.diÂerence between results from (IP+RI) rats compared with RI-only rats at any of the three times. There was Materials and methods Ninety rats were randomized into six groups, i.e. sham-operated controls; IP alone; no significant alteration in renal tissue integrity in the IP-only rats compared with sham-operated controls. a 20 or 40 min period of left renal ischaemia (RI) alone; and IP followed by a 20 or 40 min period of Histological findings paralleled the data obtained from DMSA uptake. RI. Preconditioning involved the sequential clamping of the left renal artery for 4 min and its release for 11Conclusions The IP regimen and 30 min 'critical interval' confers no protection to the kidney from a 20 or min, a total of four times, a 'critical interval' of 30 min before the ischaemic insult.

The IP regimen itself appears to have no eÂect, confirming the validity of was determined by dimercapto-succinic acid (DMSA) radionuclide imaging on a c-camera both immediately our experimental model.
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.
