Fig. 2From: A combination of SOFA score and biomarkers gives a better prediction of septic AKI and in-hospital mortality in critically ill surgical patients: a pilot studya–d Septic AKI. SOFA and APACHE II scores and serum and urinary levels of calprotectin, NGAL, and cystatin C. SOFA and APACHE II scores (a), calprotectin (b), NGAL (c), and cystatin C (d). The serum and urinary levels are represented as scatter dot plots, and the medians are reported. The arithmetic means of the tested parameters are indicated by a line.
