Absolute sCOMP for each patient up to one year after total hip replacement (n = 10 patients). sCOMP – serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein; THR – total hip replacement; t₀ – 7.1 $\pm$ 12.4 days before THR; t₁ – 7.0$\pm$ 0.7 days after THR; t₂ – 14.0 $\pm$ 2.1 weeks after THR; t₃ – 52.4 $\pm$ 1.9 weeks after THR; minimal sCOMP_t0 = 361.94 ng/ml; maximal sCOMP_t0 = 914.73 ng/ml.
