Correlation between animals survival time versus number of infected cells

Pearson’s coefficient (parasitized cells number on 8th day vs survival time of the mice)
All groups r = -0.59 p = 0.00006
Control r = -0.73 p = 0.019
PSD r = -0.65 p = 0.04
24 h RB r = -0.80 p = 0.005
48 h RB r = -0.70 p = 0.023

There are negative correlations (Pearson coefficient) between all groups (CT: r = −0.73, PSD 24 h: p = −0.65, RB 24 h: r = −0.80 and, RB 48 h: r = −0.70, respectively) as well as considering all animals independent the experimental group (r = − 0.59, p = 0.00006).
