Figure Lengend Snippet: Comparison of LDH isoenzyme activities in PE and AF among the malignant, NMNI, and infectious groups. Box plots show the median, range, and 25th and 75th quartiles within the groups. LDH level, LDH-3, and LDH-4 activities were significantly higher in the malignant group than those in the NMNI group ( p = 0.007, 0.007, and 0.002, respectively). LDH-1 activity was significantly lower in the malignant group than that in the NMNI group ( p < 0.001). LDH-1 activity was significantly lower in the malignant group than that in the infectious group ( p = 0.031). LDH level and LDH-4 activity were lower in the malignant group than those in the infectious group ( p = 0.015, respectively). Statistical analyses were performed using the Kruskal–Wallis test. Post hoc comparisons were conducted using the Mann–Whitney U test with Bonferroni correction. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; PE, pleural effusion; AF, ascitic fluid; NMNI, non-malignant, non-infectious.

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0239516

Figure Lengend Snippet: Determination of CK-NAC (A), CK-MB (B), and LDH (E) before and after the class. Data are shown as individual data points and the mean ± SEM for 9–14 participants in terms of relative unit (RU). * p< 0.05 for comparison of the values before and after the class. The correlation between CK-NAC activity and L-selectin plasma levels (r 2 = 0.76, p<0.05) and between CK-MB activity and L-selectin plasma levels (r 2 = 0.72, p<0.05) is presented in the (C) and (D), respectively.

Article Snippet: Following the method established by Zammit & Newsholme [ ], plasma CK isoforms (NAC and MB) and LDH activities were measured using kits supplied by Bioclin Diagnostics (São Paulo, SP, Brazil).
