abstract：OBJECTIVE:Ischaemic preconditioning may be mediated by oxygen free radicals generated during preconditioning. Conflicting results have been reported regarding the effect of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in attenuating the cardioprotective effect of preconditioning. The aim of the study was to reconcile this conflict by ex...
