Figure 1From: Myocardium tissue changes caused by electrical transthoracic discharges in rats Glycogen (blushed with PAS method) and lipid (blushed with Sudan IV) depletion in hepatocytes and adrenal gland cells, respectively, were verified to examine stress condition immediately after countershock. There was no significative difference among control (A-D), post-discharge (B-E) and discharge (C-F) groups regarding glycogen depletion in hepatocytes (A, B and C) and lipid depletion in adrenal gland cells (D, E and F).Back to article page
