From: Morphometric assessment of the left inferior phrenic vein in patients with portal hypertension
(a) Box plot of the diameter of LIPV in relation to sex (p = 0.0056). (b) Box plot of the diameter of narrowed LIPV in relation to sex (p = 0.013). c Box plot of the narrowing rate in relation to sex (p = 0.55). d Box plot of the distance from LRV in relation to sex (p = 0.83). The diameter of LIPV and the diameter of narrowed LIPV were significantly larger in males than in females, whereas no significant differences were observed in the narrowing rate or distance to narrowing from the left renal vein.
