Fig 1 Terminal complement complex (TCC) and C3bc concentrations in plasma after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Values are expressed as arbitrary units per milliliter of plasma. Points represent mean values ± standard error of the mean. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2010 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 2 Changes as a function of time after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) of C1rs-C1inh (classical pathway activation) (A), C4bc (combined classical and lectin pathway) (B), C3bBbP (alternative pathway activation) (C), and mannose-binding lectin (MBL; lectin pathway) (D) concentrations in plasma. Values are expressed as arbitrary units per milliliter or milligrams per milliliter of plasma. Points represent mean values ± standard error of the mean.

Fig 3 Concentrations of C3bc (A) and terminal complement complex (TCC) (B) in plasma in patients with low C3bc values compared with patients with normal C3bc concentrations as a function of time after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Values are expressed as arbitrary units per milliliter of plasma. Points represent mean values ± standard error of the mean.
