Figure 3

Impact of organ dysfunction on serum RBP4 in critically ill patients. (a and b) Parameters indicating the hepatic biosynthetic capacity, such as serum albumin concentrations or the pseudocholinesterase acitvity, are positively correlated with serum RBP4 concentrations. (c) Serum RBP4 is elevated in ICU patients with renal failure, as demonstrated exemplarily by the correlation with serum creatinine. Spearman rank correlation test, correlation coefficient r and P values are given.
