value is significant statistics at level <0.05. LSD was used to determine multiple comparisons among three groups (post hoc tests). The data is presented as mean ± standard deviation (range). WBC: white blood cells. Lym: lymphocytes. Neu: neutrophils. Mon: monocytes; Hb: hemoglobin; hs-CRP: highly sensitive C-reactive protein; LDH: lactate dehydrogenase; APTT: activated partial thromboplastin time; NS: no significant; RBC: red blood cells; IL-6: interleukin-6; AST: aspartate aminotransferase; ALT: alanine aminotransferase.
