FIGURE 2.

Biochemical variable of DCH qPCR‐positive cats. Box‐and‐whiskers plots indicate the biological parameters of the DCH‐positive cats that revealed statistical significance in elevation of liver enzymes including AST and ALT, whereas ALP, GGT, ALB, TP, total bilirubin, triglyceride, and cholesterol levels were not statistically different from those of the DCH‐negative cats. The “×” in the boxes and circles beyond the whiskers denote mean and outliers, respectively. The normal range of each parameter is marked by a dotted line. The statistical significance of the representative parameters among DCH‐positive and ‐negative cats is indicated by asterisks. ALB, serum albumin; ALP, alkaline phosphatase; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; GGT, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase; TP, total protein
