Fig. 2

The study protocol: Four groups, each with 5 Wistar albino rats, were constructed; RIPC + PN, PN, RIPC, and sham. Right nephrectomy was performed in all groups except the sham group. Three days later, PN was performed in the PN and RIPC + PN groups. PN was performed under warm ischemia following RIPC. Blood samples were collected on multiple occasions until euthanasia on day 7
