Figure 1 Heatmap of correlations between Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and laboratory indices.The heatmap displays Spearman’s correlation coefficients (rs) between the CONUT score and various coagulation and inflammatory parameters. A deeper red color indicates a stronger positive correlation, while a deeper blue indicates a stronger negative correlation. PT – prothrombin time; INR – international normalized ratio; PTA – prothrombin activity; APTT – activated partial thromboplastin time; PCT – procalcitonin; IL-6 – interleukin-6; NLR – neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio; neutrophil – neutrophil count; PLT – platelet; lymphocyte – lymphocyte count.
