Correlation between the angiopoietin (ANG)2/ANG1 ratio and clinical parameters. Pearson’s correlation was calculated to test the association between altered ANG2/ANG1 balance and clinical parameters. a Correlation between early ANG imbalances (1 h after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)) and dosage of norepinephrine administered after CABG (left), and serum lactate levels measured at admission to the ICU (right). b Correlation between late increase of ANG balance (24 h after CABG) and crystalloid fluid balance 24 h after admission to ICU (left), and duration of mechanical ventilation (right).
