Poor Outcome and Mortality in Patients with Lower Lung-Dominant Sarcoidosis

Figure 4

Comparison of overall survival between patients with lower dominance and nonlower dominance. Survival of patients was calculated from the date of first evaluation with pulmonary sarcoidosis. The lower dominant group (all: dashed line and except for the atypical cases: dotted lines) showed significantly worse survival rates than the nonlower dominant group (the solid line). in the log-rank test. +: censored patients.
