Figure Lengend Snippet: Changes in haptoglobin and hemopexin levels in the analyzed cohort over the eight-day observation period. The dotted lines represent the upper and lower reference ranges for haptoglobin (0.30–2.00 g/L) and hemopexin (0.5–1.15 g/L). The box plots depict the median values (midline) and interquartile ranges (box) between the 25th and 75th percentiles, while the whiskers indicate the minimum and maximum values. For both parameters, the p -values shown on days 2–8 refer to comparisons with baseline values measured on admission to the ICU.
Article Snippet: Plasma haptoglobin and hemopexin concentrations were measured using commercial immunonephelometric assays with N Antiserum to Human Haptoglobin and N Antiserum to Human Hemopexin, respectively (Atellica ® NEPH 630 System, Siemens Healthineers AG, Forchheim, Germany) [ , ].
