Soluble ST2 Plasma Concentrations Predict Mortality in HBV-Related Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure

Figure 4

Dynamic changes in mean plasma levels of soluble ST2 (sST2) in patients who survived () during the 180-day follow-up versus those who died (). Differences between the two groups at a single time point were evaluated using the Mann-Whitney test. Results of repeated measures analysis of variance confirmed that dynamic changes in sST2 levels of the two groups differed ().
