Rab5a expression in peripheral blood monocytes from sepsis patients and its clinical relevance. A The correlation between Rab5a mRNA level in peripheral blood monocytes from sepsis patients and SOFA scores. The data were analyzed using the Pearson correlation test (r = 0.565, P < 0.05, n = 19). B The correlation between membrane TLR4 in peripheral blood monocytes from sepsis patients and SOFA scores. The data were analyzed using the Pearson correlation test (r = 0.537, P < 0.05, n = 19). C Rab5a mRNA level in peripheral blood monocytes from health control, septic survivor, and septic non-survivor (n = 11, 15, 4). D Membrane TLR4 in peripheral blood monocytes from health control, septic survivor, and septic non-survivor (n = 11, 15, 4). Data are expressed as the mean ± SD, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, 1-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test
