Figure 2.

Correlation of preoperative level of d-ROMs, oxidative stress biomarker based on gross level of hydroperoxides in circulation, with (A) postoperative days until normalization of WBC count (<9000 mm⁻³) and (B) CRP level (<1.0 mg·dl⁻¹). Solid lines indicate regression lines with a 95% confidence interval (dashed lines) and r indicates correlation coefficient. CRP = C-reactive protein, d-ROMs = derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites, WBC = white blood cell.
