Serial Serum Leukocyte Apoptosis Levels as Predictors of Outcome in Acute Traumatic Brain Injury

Figure 1

Mean percentages of early apoptosis (annexin V) in (a) total leukocytes, (b) neutrophils, (c) lymphocytes, and (d) monocytes on Days 1, 4, and 7 in patients with acute TBI and in the controls. ^A𝑃<0.05, acute TBI patients with good outcome versus health controls; ^B𝑃<0.05, acute TBI patients with poor outcome versus health controls; ^∗𝑃<0.05, acute TBI patients with poor outcome versus those with good outcome, by Mann-Whitney 𝑈 test.
