Figure 4. Serum sST2 is elevated in pediatric SBTx recipients during diagnosed rejection episodes.

Figure 4

Circulating sST2 determinations were completed using ELISA on the serum collected from a cohort of SBTx recipients during periods of quiescence (No Rejection), rejection (R), or non-specific enteritis. (A) Table depicts the general demographics of these SBTx recipients. (B) ELISA values are presented as box whisker plots as in Figs. 1 and 2. Significance levels indicated were calculated using the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney rank sum test. (D) ROC curve analysis of No Rejection Samples (Negative Control Group) and Rejection Samples (Positive Control Group). SBTx, small bowel transplant; sST2, soluble ST2.
