Effect of intra-abdominal volume increment on kidneys in minipigs with intra-abdominal hypertension after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation

Table 2 Thickness measured by CT and B ultrasound

Index (mm)	Group	Before shock (n= 8)	2 h after IAH (n= 8)	22 h after surgery (n= 4)
Right kidney thickness as determined by CT	IAVI group	12.50 ± 4.20	13.50 ± 3.20^§	15.70 ± 1.80^★△
Right kidney thickness as determined by CT	Sham-operated group	12.50 ± 4.20	13.50 ± 3.20^§	19.00 ± 1.40
Right renal cortical thickness as determined by B ultrasound	IAVI group	5.50 ± 0.80	6.80 ± 1.00	5.90 ± 0.70^△
	Sham-operated group	5.50 ± 0.80	6.80 ± 1.00	9.30 ± 0.40

Compared with before shock, ^§P < 0.05. Compared with 2 h after IAH, ^★P < 0.05. IAVI group vs. sham-operated group, △P < 0.05.
