The T-test was used for normally distributed differences in blood values between two measurement points. A Wilcoxon test was used for non-normally distributed differences. For the percentage change in the proportion of pathological blood values, the two-sided Fischer’s exact test was used * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01;***. p < 0.001; data in parenthesis are ranges. Abbreviations: CK: creatine kinase; Phos: inorganic phosphate; GOT: aspartate aminotransferase; GPT: alanine aminotransferase; Leuco: leukocytes; Hb: hemoglobin; Pla: platelets; SD, standard deviation.
