Lactate level, which is used to describe tissue perfusion, gradually decreased throughout the experiments. The line diagram (mean ± SEM) represents the whole blood lactate levels in both groups. The data shown depended on the number of rats surviving at each time point. CA + ECLS: asphyxial cardiac arrest rats rescued by ECLS; ECLS: extracorporeal life support; NC + ECLS: normal rats treated with ECLS. No significant differences were observed between the CA + ECLS and NC + ECLS groups at the same time points
