Figure 1 (A) Plot of individual patient ejection fractions before liver transplant (Pre-LT) and after (Post-LT). There was minimal difference in LVEF between the 2 time points on paired analysis (mean ΔEF: −0.746, P=0.16). (B) Post-liver transplant left ventricular ejection fraction stratified by severity of hIRI. There was no significant difference between post-LT LVEF between these groups (P=0.39). (C) There was no difference in POD 1 ALT (P=0.58) or AST (P=0.67) between patients with Post-LT LVEF <35% and those who maintained LVEF >35% post-LT.
