From: Serum insulin-like growth factor-1 and its binding protein-7: potential novel biomarkers for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Fig. 1

Comparison of serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) (a), and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-7 concentrations (IGFBP-7) (b), and the insulin-like growth factor axis (the molar ratio of IGFBP-7 and IGF-1) (c) between controls, LVDD and HFpEF. Log IGFBP-7, log IGF-1 and the IGFBP7/IGF-1 levels are presented as box (25th percentile, median, 75th percentile), and whiskers plots, with outliers expressed as dots. All comparisons, P <0.001. LVDD, asymptomatic left ventricular diastolic dysfunction; HFpEF, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
