Table 2. Statistical Significance between Different LA Treatments in Inhibiting KCl-evoked and CAB-evoked [Ca²⁺]ⁱTransients at Each Single LA Concentration Applied

Values compared between LA treatment inhibiting * KCl-evoked and † Carbachol-evoked [Ca²⁺]ⁱtransients.

One-way ANOVA (Student-Neuman-Keuls test) was used. A significant difference (P < 0.05) between any two LA-treated groups was labeled in the table as follows: treatments at a LA-concentration of 0.1 (a), 0.25 (b), 0.5 (c), 1, 2 (d), and 2.3 (e) mm, respectively.

BPV = bupivacaine; CAB = carbachol; LA = local anesthetic; LDC = lidocaine; NS = no significant difference was found at any LA concentration between that particular group pair; RPV = ropivacaine.
