Systemic inflammation following transperitoneal (TP) and retroperitoneal (RP) abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Values are mean ± standard deviation (SD). CRP, C-reactive protein. Group mean changes ( A ) further differentiated according to clamp position in RP patients ( B ). IR, infrarenal; SR, suprarenal; SC, supraceliac. Day 0 is the first sample taken on admission to critical care postoperatively. ( A ) TP + RP groups. Group effect: p  = 0.002 (retrospective power of 0.895); time effect: p  ≤ 0.001; group × time: p  = 0.053 (greenhouse-Geisser correction). ( B ) RP group only. Group effect: p  = 0.627; time effect: p  ≤ 0.001; Group × time: p  = 0.868 (greenhouse-Geisser correction). p -Values obtained using two-way repeated-measures analyses of variance (Group: TP vs. RP or clamp: IR vs. SR + SC × time: pre-/postoperative periods).
