Comparison of body temperature, percentage of neutrophils, appendix diameter and white cell count between pathological subtypes of appendicitis

Outcome measures			F value	P value
Body temperature	Simple	36.98±0.39	5.47	0.005
	Suppurative	37.03±0.79
	Gangrenous	37.66±1.08
N%	Simple	77.86±14.74	10.28	0.048
	Suppurative	88.31±57.83
	Gangrenous	86.65±7.17
WCC	Simple	12.35±4.48	1.928	0.148
	Suppurative	15.06±4.50
	Gangrenous	15.99±5.98
Appendix diameter	Simple	10.00±1.66	4.08	0.018
	Suppurative	12.33±2.81
	Gangrenous	13.10±2.13

With variance analysis between groups, p<0.05 was statistically significant.
N%, percentage of neutrophil; WCC, white cell count.
