Figure 5. Percentage of MDSCs is more Clinically Prognostic than Absolute Number of MDSCs.

Figure 5

A. Patients that succumb to early mortality (<14 days) have a relative leukopenia during the first 24 hours when compared to those who survive greater than 14 days. Patients with ICU LOS greater than or equal to 14 days have a persistently higher leukocytosis when compared to those patients with ICU LOS less than 14 days. B. Patients with early mortality have similar absolute numbers of MDSCs as survivors because the relative leukopenia is offset by a significantly greater percentage of MDSCs (Figure 4). Patients with shorter ICU LOS (<14 days) have lower absolute numbers of MDSCs, this is statistically significant at days 4, 7 and 14 and correlates with the data reported on percentage of MDSCs. C & D. Total number of patients per time point.
