Table 2. Biochemical analysis of collagen cross-links hydroxylysylpyridinoline (HP) and lysylpyridinoline (LP).
| Control (n = 5) | POP-pre (n = 5) | POP-post (n = 5) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| (HP + LP)/triple helix | 0.09 (0.08–0.25) | 0.09 (0.04–0.10) | 0.10 (0.10–0.12) |
Data is presented as: median (IQR). Non-parametric statistical tests: Mann-Whitney.
