Effect of preconditioning on (a) Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), (b) Creatine Kinase (CK-MB) and (c) Coronary flow rate (CFR); (n = 6) Results: Mean ± SD; analyzed by Two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s multiple comparison test as post hoc analysis; ^*p < 0.05 vs. Basal, ^ap < 0.05 vs. IR control, ^bp < 0.05 vs. HL-IR, ^cp < 0.05 vs. IPC control, ^dp < 0.05 vs. HL-IR, ^ep < 0.05 vs. HL-IPC, ^fp < 0.05 vs. HL-IPC, ^gp < 0.05 vs. HL-DA-IPC and ^#p < 0.05 vs. HL-IR were significant and ^hp > 0.05 vs. HL-CZ-IPC was insignificant
