Panel (a) displays a line graph showing a positive association between age in years and haemolysis percentage, with confidence intervals shaded. Panel (b) is a scatter plot with error bars, showing haemolysis percentage decreasing as PCV percentage increases. Panel (c) illustrates a line graph depicting a strong upward curve in haemolysis percentage as storage time in weeks increases, with shaded confidence intervals. — Model-adjusted percentage hemolysis in stored feline packed red blood cell (pRBC) units according to key predictors: (a) donor age; (b) packed cell volume (PCV) category; and (c) Storage time. Values shown are adjusted estimates derived from the multivariable mixed-effects Gamma model and should not be interpreted as raw percentage hemolysis values from a single storage time point.
