Table 1. Demographical data and routine laboratory tests results of brain tumor patients versus non-tumoral individuals.
Differences were considered significant with the value of p<0.05.
| Brain tumor N = 33 | Non-tumoral N = 10 | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Age (years) | 59 (48–67) | 66 (47–68) | 0.561 |
| Gender: Male/Female | 22/11 | 3/7 | - |
| WBC [x103/μl] | 12.31 (8.31–17.90) | 6.02 (4.71–7.49) | 0.000 |
| Na+ [mmol/l] | 138 (136–140) | 140 (136–140) | 0.682 |
| K+ [mmol/l] | 4.6 (4.3–4.8) | 4.5 (4.2–4.7) | 0.542 |
| Glucose [mg/dl] | 114(85–153) | 89 (86–103) | 0.133 |
| Urea [mg/dl] | 47 (38–58) | 30 (20–49) | 0.024 |
| Creatinine [mg/dl] | 0.78 (0.76–0.89) | 0.78 (0.69–0.83) | 0.419 |
| eGFR [ml/min/1.73 m2] | 104 (79–111) | 95 (77–104) | 0.561 |
WBC—white blood cells count, eGFR—estimated glomerular filtration rate Conversion factor conventional to SI unit: WBC [109/l]—1.0, creatinine [μmol/l]—88.402, eGFR [ml/s]—0.0167.
