The malformation percentages of the erythrocyte in different Ozone concentrations
| Concentrations | 0 μg/mL | 80 μg/mL | 160 μg/mL | P value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Malformation percentages of erythrocyte (%) | ||||
| AD group | 3.78 (2.87-5.21) | 5.65 (4.62-8.96) | 13.24 (10.43-15.26)a,b | <0.001 |
| Control group | 5.23 (2.72-6.45) | 5.36 (3.62-7.53) | 10.32 (7.97-16.24)a,b | <0.001 |
| P value | 0.425 | 0.482 | 0.223 |
Data was presented as median (25th-75th). Comparison among different concentrations was determined by Kruskal-Wallis H rank sum test, and a Dunn-Bonferroni test for post hoc comparisons. Comparison between AD group and Control group was determined by Wilcoxon rank sum test. P<0.05 was considered significant.
a
Ozone concentrations 0 μg/mL vs 80 μg/mL or 160 μg/mL are significantly different (P<0.05);
b
Ozone concentrations 80 μg/mL vs 160 μg/mL are significantly different (P<0.05).
AD, aortic dissection.
