Fig 4. Association of BSP serum concentrations and patients survival.

Fig 4

(A) BSP serum levels were similar in patients that survived compared to patients that died from liver cirrhosis during follow-up. (B) ROC curve analysis showed that the prognostic value of BSP serum levels in patients with liver cirrhosis is poor (C) ROC curve analysis showed that serum levels of BSP were inferior to other scoring systems or serum markers in differentiating between patients that survived or not. (D) SBP serum levels were similar in patients that survived and patients that died from liver cirrhosis at different time-points (left panels); ROC curve analysis showed that serum levels of BSP had an inferior prognostic value compared to the MELD score in patients with liver cirrhosis.
