Fig. 2From: Reduced endogenous secretory RAGE in blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is associated with poor prognosis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosisAssociation between the levels of esRAGE in serum and BALFThe serum levels of endogenous secretory receptor for advanced glycation end products (esRAGE) were significantly correlated with bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of esRAGE in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). *p < 0.05 (Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient)Back to article page
