Proteasome Activity and C-Reactive Protein Concentration in the Course of Inflammatory Reaction in Relation to the Type of Abdominal Operation and the Surgical Technique Used

Table 2

The statistical parameters of proteasome 20S ChT-L activity in the plasma of children before and after abdominal surgery performed using laparoscopic and open technique.

Proteasome 20S ChT-L activity (U/mg)	Laparoscopic surgery (; 50%)		Open surgery (; 50%)
	Before	After	Before	After
Median	0.15	0.30	0.18	0.53
Minimum	0.05	0.08	0.01	0.23
Maximum	0.56	0.86	0.38	1.78
Percentiles (25%–75%)	0.10–0.23	0.21–0.42	0.14–0.33	0.31–0.96
value
Increase (%)	101.22		193.08
value

A value < 0.017 is considered to show a significant difference between groups (according to Bonferroni correction). The increase in proteasome activity after surgery was calculated relative to the value before the operation.
