Upregulation of TLR2/4 Expression in Mononuclear Cells in Postoperative Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome after Liver Transplantation

Table 4

Postoperative clinical characteristics in SIRS versus non-SIRS.

	SIRS	non-SIRS
	($n=12$)	($n=15$)
Duration of mechanical ventilation (h)	19 ${(44)}^{*}$	11 (9)
ALT (U/L)	$530\pm 268$	$655\pm 410$
AST (U/L)	136 (153)	60 (112)
PT (s)	$17\pm 4$	$16\pm 2$
BUN (mmol/L)	$19\pm 11$	$13\pm 6$
Cr ($\mu$mol/L)	$102\pm 56$	$92\pm 40$
Pulmonary infecttion	9/12	6/15

$\text{Mean}\pm \text{SD}$ or median (Q), ${}^{*}P<.05$, compared with the non-SIRS group.
ALT = alanine aminotransferase; AST = aspartate aminotransferase; PT = prothrombin time; BUN = blood urea nitrogen; SCr = serum creatinine.
Duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation in the SIRS group was significantly longer than non-SIRS group. Hepatic function, renal function and pulmonary infecttion after the surgery also did not differ between the 2 groups.
