From: Ameliorative effect of hesperidin against high dose sildenafil-induced liver and testicular oxidative stress and altered gene expression in male rats

Tr treatment g group	Liver parameters		Testes
Tr treatment g group	ROS (μmol/g tissue)	NO (μmol/g tissue)	ROS (μmol/g tissue)	NO (μmol/g tissue)
Control	68.33 ± 5.95	200.00 ± 4.30	9.33 ± 0.69	76.33 ± 1.83
SIL	117.33 ± 4.78^a	340.33 ± 2.86^a	19.66 ± 0.27^a	128.33 ± 2.45^a
HP	65.33 ± 4.90^b	186.43 ± 6.22^b	10.00 ± 0.66^b	81.33 ± 1.31^b
SIL + HP	86.66 ± 3.76^b	236.00 ± 3.00^b	8.66 ± 0.89^b	71.33 ± 1.25^b

Values represent the mean ± SE of 6 rats. Values with the same letters are not significant at (P < 0.05)
^aP < 0.05: Significantly different from control
^bP < 0.05: Significantly different from SIL-treated group
