Notes: a, bWithin same row, different letters indicate groups statistically different from each other based on post hoc comparisons by Dunn test. Bold Values: There were statistically significant differences in troponin I, crp, D-dimer, NO, and OSI levels in myopericarditis cases (p <0.05). hKruskal–Wallis H-test p-value (exact).
Abbreviations: TAS, total antioxidant status (mmol Trolox Eq/L); TOS, total oxidant status (mmol H2O2 Eq/L); OSI, oxidative stress index (TOS/TAS); PON, Paraoxonase (U/L); NO, nitric oxide (μmol/L).
