Figure 6.
Correlation of lipid mediators and platelet function parameters. The left column (panels A,D,G,J,M) shows the correlation coefficient r in heat maps for BL, end of storage (7 and 14 days, respectively), and for the difference between BL and end of storage (Delta). The middle column (panels B,E,H,K,N) shows the correlation between platelet functional parameters and storage bag lipid mediator concentration. The right column (panels C,F,I,L,O) shows the correlation between platelet functional parameters and recipient bioactive lipid mediator concentration. Data are shown as heat maps and linear regression analysis plots; n = 8 to 9 in each group, and individual P values are shown in each figure. DHA, docosahexaenoic acid; ETP, endogenous thrombin potential.
