Correlation between the patients’ histone H3 level and the length of ICU stay and the patients’ illness severity score
Scatter plots of histone H3 levels versus the length of ICU stay and severity scores are shown. Significant positive correlations between the histone H3 level and length of ICU stay, SOFA score, and JAAM DIC score are shown. No correlation between histone H3 level and APACHE II score is evident. Approximation lines were added to the graphs that showed a significant correlation.
ICU, intensive care unit; SOFA, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment; JAAM, Japanese Association for Acute Medicine; DIC, disseminated intravascular coagulation; APACHE, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation
