Figure 2

Retrospective comparison of organ function between dying and surviving septic mice using CLP as reference point. Plasma levels of (A) ALT (B) LDH (C) urea and (D) glucose in mice that died (CLP-Only DIED) or survived (CLP-Only SUR) post-CLP were compared to surviving CLP-ODam mice (CLP-ODam SUR). For (A) to (D) in CLP-Only: at 6 h, DIED n = 45 and SUR n ≥ 36; at 24 h, DIED n = 37 and SUR n = 38; at 48 h, DIED n = 13 and SUR n ≥ 37; at 72 h, DIED n = 7 and SUR n ≥ 34; at 96 h, DIED n = 3, SUR n = 36. In CLP-ODam SUR n = 3 at all measured time points (24, 48, 72 h); *p < 0.05 between CLP-Only DIED and CLP-ODam SUR. Dotted lines indicate normal range. Data points shown as mean ± SD.
