From: Serum resistin levels in critically ill patients are associated with inflammation, organ dysfunction and metabolism and may predict survival of non-septic patients

Figure 1

Serum resistin concentrations in critically ill patients. (a) Serum resistin levels are significantly (P < 0.001, U-test) elevated in all patients in the intensive care unit (n = 170) as compared with healthy controls (n = 60). (b) Serum resistin levels are significantly (P < 0.001, U-test) higher in sepsis patients (n = 122) as compared with non-sepsis (n = 48) patients. Box plots are displayed, where the bold black line indicates the median per group, the box represents 50% of the values, and horizontal lines show minimum and maximum values of the calculated non-outlier values; open circles indicate outlier values.
