The relationship between 48-hour total cholesterol and Injury Severity Score. The ISS ≥ 20-&-TC ≥ 90 mg/dL - Yes group (boxes) shows no statistical relationship between cholesterol and Injury Severity Score (r = -0.07; p = 0.55). The ISS ≥ 20-&-TC ≥ 90 mg/dL - No group (diamonds) demonstrates an inverse correlation between cholesterol and Injury Severity Score (r = -0.53; p < 0.0001).
