1 Predictive value of soluble haemoglobin scavenger receptor CD163 serum levels for survival in verified tuberculosis patients  T.B. Knudsen, P. Gustafson, G. Kronborg, T.B. Kristiansen, S.K. Moestrup, J.O. Nielsen, V. Gomes, P. Aaby, I. Lisse, H.J. Møller, J.

2 Fig. 1 Kaplan–Meier plots showing survival during treatment and long-term survival of verified cases of tuberculosis. Vertical lines indicate censoring. The upper bold line indicates patients with sCD163 levels below the upper reference limit of 3.95 µg/mL, and the lower line indicates levels above the upper reference limit of 3.95 µg/mL. (a) Overall survival during treatment in verified TB cases (n = 113; 27 cases > 3.95 µg/mL; p 0.017). (b) Overall long-term survival in verified TB cases (n = 113; 27 cases > 3.95 µg/mL; p < 0.001). (c) Long-term survival in HIV-negative verified TB cases (n = 68, 14 cases > 3.95 µg/mL; p 0.002). (d) Long-term survival in verified TB cases with concomitant HIV-1 and/or HIV-2 infection (n = 45; 13 cases > 3.95 µg/mL; p 0.02).
