Figure 1. Data concerning three patients in the MWA group with acute kidney injury (AKI). (A) The increased percentage of SCr post-MWA within 48 h. (B) Postoperative recovery time for three patients in the MWA group with AKI.
Table 3. The pain/discomfort and complication rates for patients following MWA and SR procedures.
Figure 2. A comparison of the Hgb and Alb values pre- and post-treatment. (*Using an independent t-test, the p value was calculated to evaluate the changes in factors between MWA and SR. The value marked in the picture presents the changes in factors pre- and post-treatment). A, the Hgb value; B, the Alb value.
