Relationship between plasma cytokine levels and UL-VWFM incidence in acute hepatitis and acute liver failure patients on admission. (A) Plasma ADAMTS13 activity values of patients with UL-VWFM were significantly lower than values of those without it. (B) Plasma VWF antigen values of patients with UL-VWFM were significantly higher than values of patients without it. (C) Plasma IL-6 levels of patients with UL-VWFM were significantly higher than levels of those without it. (D) Plasma IL-8 levels of patients with UL-VWFM were significantly higher than level of those without it. Data are expressed as means ± standard deviation. P<0.05 as indicated. UL-VWFM, unusually large von Willebrand factor multimers; ADAMTS13, ADAM metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type-1 motif, member 13; IL, interleukin.
