From: Procalcitonin biomarker kinetics fails to predict treatment response in perioperative abdominal infection with septic shock

Figure 3

Treatment response according to temperature, C-reactive protein, serum procalcitonin and SOFA score kinetics. Kinetics of temperature (A), C-reactive protein (B), serum procalcitonin (C) and Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score (D) in patients according to the initial treatment response from day 0 to day 5. Comparisons were made to assess whether the biomarkers kinetic and not their absolute values are different according to the initial treatment impact between day 0 and day 5. Results are expressed as means ± standard error for the mean (SEM). On the x-axis is presented the number of patients in whom data were available.
