Comparison of ET (ng/l) levels in serum in the experimental animals (n=9 per group).
| Week | Sham group | Experimental group | F-value | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 104.87±6.54 | 105.56±7.77b,c,d | 0.041 | 0.842 |
| 3 | 107.31±9.06 | 123.67±12.77a,c,d | 9.832 | 0.006 |
| 6 | 106.72±10.23 | 148.97±8.46a,b | 91.193 | 0.000 |
| 12 | 105.66±6.02 | 145.91±9.21a,b | 120.323 | 0.000 |
| F-value | 0.160 | 39.372 | ||
| P-value | 0.923 | 0.001 |
In the serum, the experimental group and the sham operation group were compared in terms of overall ET levels, and the difference was statistically significant (F=46.323, P=0.001).
a
P<0.05 vs. 1 week experiment group
b
P<0.05 vs. 3 weeks experiment group
c
P<0.05 vs. 6 weeks experiment group
d
P<0.05 vs. 12 weeks experiment group. ET, endotoxin.
