Death and Weight
During the course of the experiment, it was observed that three rats
expired within the CIS+RAN group. In order to achieve uniformity in
sample size across all groups and to obtain sufficient data for
statistical analysis, three additional rats were included in the same
group. Upon completion of the experiment, the weights of the rats and
their respective kidneys were measured. Notably, no statistically
significant differences were observed among the groups
(p>0.05) (Figure 1).
