From: Low B and T lymphocyte attenuator expression on CD4+ T cells in the early stage of sepsis is associated with the severity and mortality of septic patients: a prospective cohort study

Fig. 1

Representative flow dot plots of lymphocyte gating strategy and the percentage of B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA)+/CD4+ T cells in five groups. All lymphocytes (gate A) were gated by forward scatter/side scatter (FSC/SSC), and then differentiating T cell subsets (gate D) based on CD3+ staining in lymphocytes, and then CD4+ T cells (gate M) were further identified by CD4+ staining in T cells . The multiple dot plots of CD4 vs BTLA are representative of the percentage of BTLA+/CD4+T cells in five groups (control, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock). PE phycoerythrin, FITC fluorescein isothiocyanate, FSC INT LIN forward scatter integral linear, SS INT LIN side scatter integral linear
