The distribution of CK-MM was significantly different between males and females (Mann-Whitney U test, P < 0.001).
Differences in the CK-MM concentrations for each subgroup of gestational age were statistically significant (Kruskal-Wallis test, P < 0.001).
Differences in the CK-MM concentrations for each subgroup of birth weight were statistically significant (Kruskal-Wallis test, P < 0.001).
The differences in the CK-MM concentrations for each subgroup of age at sampling were statistically significant (Kruskal-Wallis test, P < 0.001).
