According to Gianantonio et al's criteria,36 patients were classified as mild cases (grade I: no anuria), moderate cases (grade II: less than 7 days of anuria), or severe cases (grade III: more than 7 days of anuria). Data are presented as means ± SD.
The number of days between the time of blood sample collection and the onset of diarrhea.
