Figure 2 Probability of remaining free from any end point (onset of ascites, development of esophageal varices, or progression of F1 varices) in patients receiving placebo (, group A, n = 51) or Kcanrenoate (•, group B, n = 47). The difference between the groups is statistically significant (P = .048).
