Figure 5 Lower count of circulating mucosal-associated invariant T cells indicated poor prognosis in hepatitis B virus-related liver failure. A, B: The proportion (A) and number (B) of circulating mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells in surviving (n = 32) and deceased/liver transplanted (LT) (n = 23) patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related liver failure; C, D: The Kaplan–Meier curve of HBV-related liver failure patients with low (n = 27) and high (n = 28) expression of MAIT cells in percentage (C) and count (D). aP < 0.05, cP < 0.001. PBMC: Peripheral blood mononuclear cell.
