1. Catecholamines and metabolites expressed for each mole of creatinine in single voided urine specimens on one preoperative (day 0) and four postoperative (days 1–4) days in five patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Catecholamines and metabolites expressed for each mole of creatinine in single voided urine specimens on one preoperative (day 0) and four postoperative (days 1–4) days in five patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. (A) Adrenaline, (B) noradrenaline, (C) dopamine, (D) vanillylmandelic acid, (E) metadrenaline, (F) normetadrenaline (NMA). The solid horizontal lines mark the upper limit of the reference range and the broken horizontal lines (NMA) mark 1.5 times the upper limit. Closed circles, patient 1; open squares, patient 2; open triangles, patient 3; closed squares, patient 4; closed triangles, patient 5; open circles, mean.
