The mean CysC, Cr, and BUN levels of the SCI and LF groups on each of the first 7 days. CysC levels increased on the second day, reached their peaked on day 3, and returned to normal on day 5. a The mean CysC levels of the SCI subgroups were significantly higher than those of the LF subgroups on days 2 (ap < 0.001), 3 (bp < 0.001), and 4 (cp < 0.001). b The Cr levels of the SCI group were significantly higher than those of the LF group on day 3 (dp = 0.06). c The BUN levels of the SCI group were significant higher than those of LF group on day 2 (ep = 0.06)
