Figure 1. Correlation analysis between PEM and T-cell subsets. A–F) Correlation between PEM parameters (prealbumin, transferrin, and albumin) and CD4/CD8 ratio, proportions of CD4+ cells, CD8+ cells, CD3+CD28+ cells, CD4+CD28+ cells, and CD8+CD28− cells. Red indicates prealbumin, blue indicates transferrin, and brown indicates albumin. PEM: protein energy malnutrition.
