From: Intraperitoneal lactate/pyruvate ratio and the level of glucose and glycerol concentration differ between patients surgically treated for upper and lower perforations of the gastrointestinal tract: a pilot study

Fig. 2

Microdialysis results. Postoperative intraperitoneal glucose concentration, lactate/pyruvate ratio, lactate/glucose ratio and glycerol concentration for patients with upper and lower gastrointestinal tract lesions (medians, upper and lower quartiles). Patients with a lower perforation are stratified into groups with and without complications. The P values in italics refer to the comparison of patients with an upper perforation to patients with a lower perforation and no postoperative complications. The other P values refer to the comparison of patients with an upper perforation to patients with a lower perforation and with postoperative complications. UP upper perforation postoperative, LPN lower perforation and no complications, LPC lower perforation and with complications
