Statistical investigations of some element distributions in healthy and pathologically altered human colon mucosa

In this paper data are presented concerning the distribution of Cr, Sb, Sc, Fe, Co, and Zn in HCM, of patients with histopathologically and clinically verified findings: Healthy—N; Colitis Chronica-CCh; Colitis Ulcerosa-CU; Adenoma Tubulare-AT; Adenocarcinoma-ACa. The data are presented on the basis of the contents of elements (C_E parameter expressed in nkg/g of lyophilized HCM) obtained by INAA and calculated by computer programs, with statistical parameters (n, XBAR, XMIN-XMAX, R, V, SE and SDEV). The values of C_E parameters of elements found in all diagnostic groups (decreasing order) are also presented. The minimal (bar C_E ) parameters for all elements except Zn are found in diagnostic groups AT and ACa. The maximal differences of (bar C_E ) parameters in DS-decreasing orders are found for Sb (78.89%) and the minimal for Zn (18.89%).
