Immune function biomarker QuantiFERON-monitor is associated with infection risk in cirrhotic patients

Figure 1 Median QuantiFERON (± IQR) by aetiology of liver disease. IFN-γ: Interferon-γ; AIH: Autoimmune hepatitis; ETOH: Alcohol; HBV: Hepatitis B virus; HCV: Hepatitis C virus; NASH: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis; PBC: Primary biliary cirrhosis; PSC: Primary sclerosing cholangitis.

A: Infection free survival by Child-Pugh; B: Infection free survival by MELD; C: Infection free survival by QFM; D: Infection and mortality free survival by QFM; E: Pretransplant survival based on very low QFM. QFM: QuantiFERON-Monitor; MELD: Model for end stage liver disease.
