CD14++CD16+ monocytes but not total monocyte numbers predict cardiovascular events in dialysis patients  G.H. Heine, C. Ulrich, E. Seibert, S. Seiler, J. Marell, B. Reichart, M. Krause, A. Schlitt, H. Köhler, M. Girndt  Kidney International  Volume 73, Issue 5, Pages (March 2008) DOI: /sj.ki Copyright © 2008 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Monocyte subsets: CD86+ cells with monocyte scatter properties were gated and monocyte subpopulations were defined according to their surface expression pattern of the LPS receptor CD14 and the Fcγ receptor CD16 (representative example of a hemodialysis patient (74 years of age, male, no prevalent cardiovascular disease at study entry) and an age- and gender-matched healthy control subject (73 years of age, male, no prevalent cardiovascular disease)).

5 Figure 4 Percentage of patients suffering cardiovascular events and/or death across tertiles of CD14++CD16+ monocyte counts (Mo 1–3=first to third tertiles) and C-reactive protein (CRP 1–3=first to third tertiles). Graded increases in the risk of cardiovascular events and/or death are found across increasing tertiles of CD14++CD16+ monocyte counts for any tertile of CRP levels.
