Urinary Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity and Its Isozyme Patterns in Kawasaki Disease

Table 2

A comparison of U-LDH and its isozyme patterns among KD, VI, and UTI groups.

	KD	VI	UTI
	()	()	()
U-LDH, IU/L	35.4 ± 4.8	17.0 ± 6.2	66.0 ± 8.0^††	0.002
U-LDH1, IU/L	12.5 ± 0.9	5.5 ± 2.4	7.4 ± 1.5	0.002
U-LDH2, IU/L	8.1 ± 0.6	3.9 ± 1.5	7.1 ± 0.9	0.039
U-LDH3, IU/L	4.2 ± 0.7	2.0 ± 2.0	9.5 ± 1.2^††	<0.001
U-LDH4, IU/L	4.0 ± 1.2	1.6 ± 3.3	14.4 ± 2.0^††	<0.001
U-LDH5, IU/L	6.6 ± 2.3	3.9 ± 6.4	27.4 ± 3.9^††	<0.001

The values were obtained using an ANOVA.
⁢ versus VI, versus UTI, and versus KD and VI were obtained using Tukey’s HSD test.
