Fig. 2. Comparison of microvascular remodeling in the urinary bladder of control, interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) and Ketamine-induced cystitis (KC) patients under electron microscopy. (A) Controls, basement membrane (arrowheads), (i) Small vessel, and (ii) Greater vessel. (B) IC/PBS, basement membrane (arrowheads) and mast cells (long arrow), (i) Small vessel, and (ii) Greater vessel. (C) KC, duplication of basement membrane (arrowheads) (i) Small vessel, and (ii) Greater vessel. (A)(B)(C) Red bar ¼ 2mm. Fig. 3. Bar graph for Increased thickness (mm) of basement membrane among KC (n[36), IC/PBS(n[15), and control group(n[7). (i) Small vessel and (ii) Greater vessel. Using Mann-Whitney U test for statistical analysis.
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.
