Number of passing leukocytes per minute, percentage of rolling leukocytes, and number of adherent leukocytes per square millimeters on the hamster window chamber microcirculation. Data are given as means ± SD. CONTROL, baseline controls (n = 5); SALINE–SALINE, nonendotoxemic, normal saline treated (n = 10); SALINE–DEXMEDETOMIDINE, nonendotoxemic, dexmedetomidine treated (n = 10); lipopolysaccharide–SALINE, endotoxemic, normal saline treated (n = 12); lipopolysaccharide–DEXMEDETOMIDINE, endotoxemic, dexmedetomidine treated (n = 12). *P < 0.05 as compared with CONTROL, SALINE–SALINE, or SALINE–DEXMEDETOMIDINE groups. **P < 0.05 as compared with SALINE–SALINE, SALINE–DEXMEDETOMIDINE or lipopolysaccharide–SALINE groups. †P < 0.05 as compared with any other group.
