title: [Influence of ischemic preconditioning of heart on ischemia/reperfusion injury of rabbit lung].
abstract: The influence of ischemic preconditioning of heart on ischemia-reperfusion injury of 16 Japanese big-ear-rabbit lungs were studied. The results showed: 1. Experimental group had a significant reduction in wet/dry weight ratio; 2. It had a significant increase in PaO2. 3. It had a minimal intraalveolar neutrophil infiltration in comparison with the control group. These data suggestes that the ischemic preconditioning of heart can lighten the ischemia-reperfusion injury of rabbit lungs.
