Fig. 4 Relation between B12, CRP, and Survival. This figure gives a scatterplot of CRP and B12, with observations denoted by circles with area proportional to length of survival. The two lines represent a BCI (CRP multiplied by B12) of 10,000 for the lower one and 40,000 for the upper one. The gray circle represents the only survivor Journal of Pain and Symptom Management , DOI: ( /S (00)00169-X)
