Chronic hepatitis B with type 2 diabetes mellitus: Association between glycemic control and liver fibrosis

Figure 3 Pairwise comparisons among those with differing fibrosis status (total n = 420, no fibrosis group n = 27, liver fibrosis group n = 121, and cirrhosis group n = 272). A: Total bilirubin; B: True conjugated bilirubin; C: Thrombin time; D: Diabetes mellitus treatment program. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for intergroup comparisons of total bilirubin, true conjugated bilirubin and thrombin time, and the χ² test was used for intergroup comparisons of the diabetes mellitus regimens. TBIL: Total bilirubin; Bc-Tr: True conjugated bilirubin; TT: Thrombin time; DM: Diabetes mellitus. ^aP < 0.05.
