Fig. 4From: The effects of exercise and active assisted cycle ergometry in post-operative total knee arthroplasty patients - a randomized controlled trialBlood Biomarkers. A) Plasma IL-10 concentration pre-op and post-op measures in the control and active assisted cycle ergometer (AACE) groups. A = pre-op, B = 2 days post-op, C = 6–12 weeks post-op. * denotes significant difference from corresponding pre-operative measures (P < .001 95% CI [− 1.372, − 0.523]), # denotes significant difference from corresponding 6–12 week post-operative measures (P = .001 95% CI [0.299, 1.149]). n = 21–25 per group; only participants with all three blood draws were analyzed. B) Plasma P-selectin concentration pre-op and post-op measures in the control and active assisted cycle ergometer (AACE) groups.
