Serum FLC sum (a) and FLC difference (dFLC, b) analysed using Seralite®. Data is shown for patients with multiple myeloma (with either a monoclonal κ or λ FLC) and acute kidney injury (AKI), patients with AKI without myeloma (non-myeloma related AKI) and healthy donors. Boxes show the interquartile range, with the line indicating the median, and the whiskers show the minimum and maximum. * indicates a significant difference to the non-myeloma related AKI group; † indicates a significant difference to healthy donors; p < .01 for all comparisons. FLC sum = κ FLC + λ FLC; dFLC difference = involved minus the uninvolved LC in myeloma patients/maximum FLC minus the minimum FLC in patients without myeloma and healthy donors
