Fig. 9. Scatterplots illustrating the relationship between ipsilateral nociceptive score and glycemia in rats with chronic postischemia pain (CPIP) using glucose levels for the entire ischemia-reperfusion injury (A ), for only the ischemic period (B ) or only the reperfusion period (C ). Specific groups in the scatterplot are identified in the symbol legend, with open symbols used for relatively hypoglycemic groups and closed symbols for relatively hyperglycemic groups. For each period (ischemia and reperfusion), there was a significant positive correlation between the nociceptive cold score and the mean glucose value (mM) during ischemia/reperfusion injury for CPIP rats (R²= coefficient of determination). dex = dextrose; ins = insulin; NS = normal saline.
