Correlation between VEGF and bFGF and markers of pericardial inflammation in patients with inflammatory pericardial effusion.

Variable VEGF bFGF
LDH (U/L) in PE r 0.655 −0.542
P <0.001 0.002
Leukocytes (G/L) in PE r 0.543 −0.443
P 0.003 0.02

VEGF: vascular endothelial growth factor; bFGF: basic fibroblast growth factor; PE: pericardial effusion; r, Spearman coefficient of correlation; P: P-value.
