Figure 3. Serum protein concentration
in study subjects according to −174G/C genotype. Serum
concentrations of: A: interleukin-6 (IL-6), B:
high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and C:
vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in patients with
Eales’ disease (ED) at the inflammatory stage, as well as the
healthy controls, for each −174G/C genotype. The Mann–Whitney U
test was performed to determine whether significant differences
were present within the same groups of subjects with different
−174G/C genotypes. The results of this analysis are indicated in
brackets. An asterisk denotes a significant p value.
