Pearson’s correlation coefficients of matrix metalloproteinase-7, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, albumin, total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase

Pearson correlation	CA19-9	Albumin	Total bilirubin	AST	ALT	ALP
MMP7	0.415^a	-0.577^a	0.328^a	0.154^a	-0.055	0.268^a
CA19-9	0.415^a	-0.370^a	0.356^a	0.064	-0.022	0.139

Statistically significant, P < 0.05. AST: Aspartate aminotransferase; ALT: Alanine aminotransferase; ALP: Alkaline phosphatase; MMP7: Matrix metalloproteinase-7; CA19-9: Carbohydrate antigen 19-9.
