Biochemical Correlation Patterns Post-Mission Differentiate Exacerbated and Moderate Muscular Response Groups. (A) Spearman correlation between CK and biochemical parameters post-mission; bars represent the Spearman rank (rho) values. Colored bar indicated statistically significant correlation (P < 0.05). Red bar represents positive correlation and blue bar negative correlation. (B) Spearman correlation between CK levels with biochemical markers in military personnel with Exacerbated Muscular Response (CK ≥ 1000 U/L) and Moderate Muscular Response (CK < 1000 U/L); the values of r and p shown in the figure correspond to exacerbated muscular response (yellow box) and moderate muscular response (blue box). Abbreviations: ALT = Alanine Aminotransferase, AST = Aspartate Aminotransferase, CK = Creatine Kinase, CKMB = Creatine Kinase Muscle-Brain, LDH = Lactate Dehydrogenase.
