Correlation between clinical parameters and GDF-15. (A) GDF-15 was significantly elevated in Patients with APC Fontan as compared to LT or ECC Fontan. (B) Duration of APC Fontan moderately correlated positively with GDF-15 levels. (C) Biomarker levels were compared between control cohort, Fontan patients without events and Fontan patients with events. In Fontan patients with events, and without events, GDF-15 levels were increased as compared to control. *p≤0.05, ****p≤0.0001
