Figure 1. Correlation of plasma IGFBP-2 level with age and KPS in GBM patients after postoperative radiotherapy plus chemotherapy.
(A, B) Box plots demonstrate that older age (≥60 years) or lower KPS values (<78.7) correlate with markedly higher plasma IGFBP-2 level (ng/ml) respectively (P<0.05). (C, D) Box plots show that older age (≥60 years) or lower KPS values (<78.7) are associated with significantly shorter overall survival (P<0.05).
