From: Predictive role of circulatory HMGB1 in postoperative acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease in lung cancer patients

Figure 2

The incidence of postoperative AE-ILD based on HMGB1 and type of surgical intervention. The cut-off level for HMGB1 was 3.82 ng/mL. In the entire population, the incidence of postoperative acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease (AE-ILD) in patients with HMGB1-high was significantly higher than that in patients with HMGB1-low (a). It was also significant in the subgroup treated with lobectomy (b), but not in those treated with sublobar resection (c). * P < 0.05 using Pearson’s chi-squared tests.
