SGB could efficaciously ameliorate SAP-ALI. An SAP rat model was engineered through sodium taurocholate, and an SGB rat model was set up via cervical sympathetic nerve trunk dissection. The rats’ lung tissues and abdominal aortic blood were harvested. A HE staining monitored pathological alterations in the rat lung tissues. B The dry and wet method evaluated lung edema in the rats. C–E Arterial blood gas analysis determined the levels of PH, PaO2, and PaCO2 and assessed the ventilation function in the rats. F–H ELISA confirmed the levels of amylase, ALT, and AST in the rat serum. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 (vs. the sham group), **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 (vs. the SAP-ALI group). N = 5
