The abscess size at admission (25.85 ± 16.68 cm2 vs. 26.71 ± 13.99 cm2; P = 0.744), WBC count (16.93 ± 6.06 × 109/L vs.18.72 ± 6.11 × 109/L; P = 0.095), and CRP level (62.14 ± 29.35 vs. 73.67 ± 50.28; P = 0.133) were also similar between the two groups. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is abscess.
