Figure 5

Analyses of end organ damage markers is shown. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN, A), aspartate aminotransferase (AST, B), alanine aminotransferase (ALT, C), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, D) and creatine phosphokinase (CPK, E) values of all groups after experimentation period are shown. bsTT: bilateral soft tissue trauma; Ctrl: healthy animals without intervention; Fx: osteotomy and external fixation; HS: hemorrhagic shock; Lap: midline laparotomy; MT: multiple trauma (TxT + HS + Lap + bsTT); PT: polytrauma (PT I: TxT + HS + Fx and PT II: TxT + HS + Fx + Lap); Sham: surgical procedures without trauma; TxT: thoracic trauma. p < 0.05 vs. indicated or * vs. Ctrl; # vs. Sham; a vs. PT I; b vs. PT II; c vs. MT.
