    Mean (standard error) change in systemic MBL levels (ng/ml) for AAA and control subjects at each stage of the procedure. For control subjects, the second blood sample was taken 2h after the start of the procedure. This corresponds chronologically with the reperfusion value in the AAA group.

    Mean percentage (%) change (and standard error) in MBL levels for AAA (n=23) and control (n=8) subjects at each stage of the procedure. Starting values for MBL are 100%, with relative decreases thereafter. For control subjects, the corresponding reperfusion value is 2h after the start of the procedure.
