C-reactive protein as an outcome predictor for maintenance hemodialysis patients  William F. Owen  Kidney International  Volume 54, Issue 2, Pages (August 1998) DOI: /j x Copyright © 1998 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Box and whisker plot showing the distribution of transformed C-reactive protein (CRP) values for 1,054 ESRD patients. The box defines the upper and lower quartiles, and the mean is shown by the cross. The notch indicates the median. Higher values for CRP are arrayed to the right.

4 Figure 3 Regression of blood hemoglobin concentration (g/dl) on transformed C-reactive protein (CRP) values (r = and P < 0.001). Transformed values correspond to real values as follows: 0 = 0; 0.2 = 0.10; 0.4 = 0.45; 0.6 = 1.29; 0.8 = 3.37; 1.0 = 9.00; 1.2 = Upper limits of normal for transformed CRP values is <3.37.
