Serum concentrations of negative acute phase proteins albumin on Day 0 (a) and Day 120 (b), and PON-1 on Day 0 (c) and Day 120 (d) in dogs with heartworm without pulmonary hypertension (no HP) (RPAD Index ≥36%), with mild pulmonary hypertension (mild HP) (RPAD Index 28–35%) and moderate or severe pulmonary hypertension (Mod-sev HP) (RPAD Index ≤27%). The box plots represent median (solid vertical lines within boxes), 25th and 75th percentiles (boxes) and minimum and maximum values (whiskers). (*): significant differences between groups. NS: not significant
