From: Mannan-binding lectin and procalcitonin measurement for prediction of postoperative infection
Correlation between MBL genotype group and MBL serum levels. Preoperative (pre-OP) mannan-binding lectin (MBL) levels in patients homozygous for the wild-type except the AX/AX type (group 1), and carriers of variations in exon 1 (A/O and O/O type) and the AX/AX type (group 2). Spearman rank correlation coefficient between genotype and preoperative serum MBL = -0.32, p = 0.02.
