Perioperative inflammation was reduced by TXA compared with Non-TXA use. The mean (SD) of serum concentrations of inflammatory biomarkers CRP (a) and IL-6 (b) during the perioperative first 5 days after TJA. Pre-OP = preoperative on morning of surgery, POD = postoperative days 1 through 5 (POD1, POD2, POD3, POD5). The asterisks indicate p values that were significantly different between two groups (calculated by independent t-tests, ** = p < 0.01, * = p < 0.05) (Error bar stands for the SD)
