Indeed, while platelets of both ICU-S and ICU-NS groups showed a trend of increase in PAC1 expression ( Figure 5B ; Mean ± SEM, control, n=11: 0.50x10 4 ± 0.03x10 4 , ICU-S, n=12: 0.57x10 4 ± 0.04x10 4 , ICU-NS, n=13: 0.81x10 4 ± 0.14x10 4 ), they significantly exhibited an increased CD62P mean fluorescence intensity when compared with control subjects ( Figure 5C , ICU-S vs. control, p= 0.020; ICU-NS vs. control, p=0.025; Mean ± SEM, control, n=11: 0.34x10 4 ± 0.04x10 4 , ICU-S, n=12: 0.62x10 4 ± 0.07x10 4 , ICU-NS, n=13: 0.61x10 4 ± 0.08x10 4 ).
