Figure 1 Comparison of plasma growth arrest-specific 6 (Gas6) levels between patients with morbid obesity and those with normal weight. The figure illustrates plasma Gas6 concentration values in patients with obesity (depicted on the right) compared with controls (left) along the x-axis. Gas6 values, expressed in ng/mL, are represented on the y-axis. Box plots represent the median (central horizontal line), interquartile ranges (upper and lower limits of the box), and extreme values (horizontal lines that extend beyond the box). Gas6 – growth arrest-specific 6. The figure was originally produced by the Authors using the software MedCalc Software, Broekstraat 52, 9030 Mariakerke, Belgium.
