T. Z. Zhang, Zhou, J., Jin, Q., Sun, Y. J., Diao, Y. G., Zhang, Y. N., and Zhang, Z., Protective effects of remifentanil preconditioning on cerebral injury during pump-assisted coronary artery bypass graft, vol. 13, pp. 7658-7665, 2014.

The protective effects of remifentanil preconditioning on serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) during pump-assisted coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) were investigated. Forty pump-assisted CABG patients were randomly divided into a remifentanil preconditioning group (R group) and a control group (C group, N = 10; normal saline). The R group was further divided into 3 sub-groups (R1, R2, and R3; N = 10 per group) according to the remifentanil dose (0.6, 1.2, and 1.8 μg·kg-1·min-1, respectively).
