Absolute numbers of circulating mDCP, pDCP, and tDCP in controls, CAD and CKD 3 patients. Absolute numbers of circulating mDCP (A), pDCP (B), and tDCP (C) (cells/μL) in 85 coronary healthy controls, 130 CAD patients, divided into 3 CAD Scores 1-5 (n = 43), 6-10 (n = 42), >10 (n = 45), and CKD 3 patients without (n = 182) and with (n = 63) CVE (Mann-Whitney-test). Box plots indicate the median (line inside the box), 25^th and 75^th percentile (lower and upper boundary of the box), and 10^th and 90^th percentile (whiskers outside the box).
