CXCL13 and Decreased liver function: However, we observed a significant correlation between preoperative CXCL10 levels and laboratory parameters of liver dysfunction (AST: Rs = 0.304, p = 0.001; bilirubin: Rs = 0.370, p = 0.001; ALP: Rs = 0.286, p = 0.002) as well as between baseline CXCL13 levels and CRP (Rs = 0.344, p = 0.001, Table S2).
