Correlations among clinical data
We examined the correlation coefficients
(See
Supplementary material, Figure S5) among these 26 clinical data and
found that TBA was significant negative correlations with gestation days
(r = -0.34), birth weight (r = -0.30), RDW.SD (r = -0.16), and
significant positive correlations with TBIL (r = 0.52), DBIL (r = 0.56),
IDBIL (r = 0.18), ALT (r = 0.17), AST (r = 0.18). And there was also a
close relationship among liver function indexes. Such as, ALT highly
positively correlated with AST (r = 0.93). ALT, AST positively
correlated with TBIL, DBIL. TBIL positively correlated with DBIL (r =
0.89). Besides, CHOL, TG, LDL and uric acid also positively with ALT and
AST. In addition, the concentration of Ca, Mg ion positively correlated
with AST. The correlations between the above mentioned clinical data
were significant (P < 0.05).
