Elevated Plasma IL-38 Concentrations in Patients with Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Their Dynamics after Reperfusion Treatment

Figure 4

Spearman’s correlation between IL-38 and CRP, cTNI, NT-proBNP, and LVEF in patients with STEMI. (a)–(c) IL-38 levels were positively correlated with CRP, cTNI, and NT-proBNP in STEMI patients at each time-point. (d) IL-38 concentrations were weakly negatively correlated with LVEF in STEMI patients at each time-point. Data are presented as mean ± SD.
