These enrolled patients were divided into two groups: relief of jaundice before surgery (group 1, <i>n</i> = 125) or not (group 2, <i>n</i> = 156).<h4>Results</h4>The initial total bilirubin level was higher in group 1; however, there were no significant differences in the other baseline characteristics including age, sex, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, previous surgical history, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, and operative time between the two groups. Here, CRP is linked to Jaundice.
