Description: the data is presented in the average ± standard deviation. The same superscript letters (a,b,c) in different rows but in the same group showed no significant differences (P>0.05). The same superscript letters (x) in different rows and the different group showed no significant differences (P>0.05). Mo: month, SS: stainless steel, Fe: iron-based implant, SGPT: serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, SGOT: serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, BUN: blood urea nitrogen.
