Total (A), male (B) and female (C) systolic and diastolic whole blood viscosity according to diagnosis. The boxplots show systolic and diastolic whole blood viscosity are significantly lower in patients with liver cirrhosis than other patients. Median (range) values of total, male and female whole blood viscosity according to diagnosis; systolic and diastolic whole blood viscosity (D).

cP = centipoises, NAFLD = nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, CVH = chronic viral hepatitis, LC = liver cirrhosis, WBV = whole blood viscosity.
