Figure 6From: Propofol administration to the maternal-fetal unit improved fetal EEG and influenced cerebral apoptotic pathway in preterm lambs suffering from severe asphyxia Reactive oxygen species in cerebral fetal cortex. Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in cerebral fetal cortex as indication of lipid peroxidation due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation. Levels of the gestational age control group were set to 1. Depicted are mean and SEM. Significant differences (p < 0.05) compared to gestational age control groups are marked by (*). Significant differences (p < 0.05) between asphyxiated and corresponding not-asphyxiated drug control group are marked by §. GA, gestational age.Back to article page
