Fig. 4.
Box plots showing results of SOFA scores and serum concentrations of the studied biomarkers in nonsurvivors (n = 24) and survivors (n = 16). A: Nonsurvivors had significantly higher SOFA scores compared to survivors (p < 0.001). B: There was no statistical significant difference between serum levels of CRP in nonsurvivors (median = 150 mg/l) and survivors (median = 130 mg/l) (p = 0.392). C: There was statistical difference between serum levels of suPAR in nonsurvivors (median = 9.38 ng/ml) and survivors (median = 6 ng/ml) (p = 0.01). D: Serum levels of lactic acid were highly significant in in non survivors (median = 2.75 mmol/l) compared to survivors (median = 1.5 mmol/l) (p < 0.001)
