From: Eradication of Helicobacter pylori alleviates lipid metabolism deterioration: a large-cohort propensity score-matched analysis

Fig. 3

Correlates of lipid metabolism change after H. pylori eradication. A. Heatmap showing the correlates of TG, HDL, and LDL changes after H. pylori eradication. The X-axis shows the 3 lipid metabolism parameters. The Y-axis lists 42 candidate predictors. Different color in each block demonstrates the corresponding P value of the comparisons between the increased and the decreased lipid metabolism patients for each candidate predictor by the independent t test. Smaller P values are presented by lighter color. P < 0.0012 (0.05/42) was determined significant after Bonferroni correction. B. Box plots comparing diastolic blood pressure after H. pylori eradication between the HDL-decreased and -increased groups. C. Box plots comparing mean platelet volume after H. pylori eradication between the HDL-decreased and -increased group. D. Box plots comparing of total protein after H. pylori eradication between the LDL-decreased and -increased group. The upper and lower whiskers on these boxes represent maximum and minimum values, respectively. Each box defines the first and third quartiles, while the marked center value within the box represents the median value.
