Local lactate concentrations over time measured by microdialysis after continued stimulation with Ringer solution, sorbitol 160 mM and calcium chloride 160 mM (a), after bolus injection of 40 µl caffeine 160 mM and Ringer solution (b) and after bolus injection of 40 µl halothane 10% vol dissolved in soy-bean oil and soy-bean oil only (c). Differences in local muscular elasticity compared to baseline measured by strain elastography on a non-dimensional scale over 60 min after pharmacological stimulation. d Following continued application of Ringer solution, Sorbitol 160 mM and CaCl 160 mM, e after bolus injection of 40 µl caffeine 160 mM and Ringer solution, f after bolus injection of 40 µl halothane 10 vol% dissolved in soy-bean oil and soy-bean oil only. Results presented as median and interquartile range. *p < 0.05 for differences between the investigated groups
