Fig. 3From: Anesthesia can alter the levels of corticosterone and the phosphorylation of signaling moleculesp44/42 MAP kinase expression in similar batch of animals. A Representative image of western blot for phosphorylated and total p44/42 MAP kinase. Each dot plotted on graph represents an individual rat. B Relative ratio of phosphorylated p44/42 MAP kinase to total p44/42 MAP kinase. Each dot represents an individual rat (n = 3). The mean difference between designated groups in the degree of phosphorylation of p44/42 MAP kinase was plotted as a bootstrap sampling distribution and is depicted as a black dot. Vertical error bar represents 95CI. The unpaired mean difference between the CT and KX groups was − 1.39 [95CI − 1.92, − 1.06]Back to article page
