Figure 2

Time course of lipid levels in the survivor and nonsurvivor groups. Data for cholesterol (a), triglyceride (b), high-density lipoprotein (c), low-density lipoprotein (d), free fatty acid (e), and apolipoprotein A-I (f) are shown. Data were collected on the day of admission and days 1, 3, and 7 after admission. The circle and bar represent the mean value and standard error of the mean, respectively. Significant differences between the survivor and nonsurvivor groups are indicated by .
