Plasma levels of acylated ghrelin in patients with functional dyspepsia

Figure 2 Relationship between plasma acylated ghrelin levels and dyspeptic symptoms in patients with functional dyspepsia. A: There was a negative correlation between fasting acylated ghrelin levels and epigastric pain scores (r = -0.427, P = 0.047); B: There was a positive correlation between the postprandial/fasting acylated ghrelin ratio and early satiety scores (r = 0.428, P = 0.047).
