Comparison of ammonia and TCD before and after treatment.

Variables	Group A		Group B		value	value
	Before	After	Before	After
Ammonia (μmol/L)					−0.621	3.760	0.550	0.004
(cm/s)					−1.880	−1.423	0.093	0.185
(cm/s)					−0.217	−1.590	0.833	0.143
(cm/s)					−1.730	−3.404	0.118	0.007
PI					0.399	3.333	0.699	0.008
RI					1.262	2.785	0.239	0.019

Table 6 indicates comparison of ammonia and TCD including , , , PI, and RI between group A and B before and after treatment. and represent comparison before and after treatment in group A; and represent comparison before and after treatment in group B. Group A is the control group; group B is the treated group. Continuous data were compared using -test. means significant differences in an index before and after treatment.
