Clinical and Biological Predictors of Plasma Levels of Soluble RAGE in Critically Ill Patients: Secondary Analysis of a Prospective Multicenter Observational Study

Figure 4

Size effect coefficient (Cohen’s coefficient), with upper standard deviation (SD) for baseline qualitative variables tested against plasma esRAGE at ICU admission. Dark bars represent positive values for size effect, grey bars represent negative values, and stars represent coefficient values with 95% confidence intervals that exclude 0, that is, statistical significance. esRAGE: endogenous secretory form of the receptor for advanced glycation end products; ICU: intensive care unit; COPD: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
