Thaliporphine Derivative Improves Acute Lung Injury after Traumatic Brain Injury

Figure 8

Rats administered TM-1 3 or 4 h after injury showed a positive correlation between the wet/dry weight ratio and the lung injury score. (a) The wet/dry weight ratio and the lung injury score in rats sacrificed at 8 h after TBI exhibited a positive correlation (df = 13, ) and a significant difference () in the three groups. (b) The wet/dry weight ratio and the lung injury score in rats sacrificed at 24 h after TBI exhibited a positive correlation (df = 13, ) and a significant difference () in the three groups.

(a) TBI 8 h

(b) TBI 24 h
