The correlation between the levels of cytokines and the values of clinical parameters in the TPE patients.
The potential associations between the concentrations of PF and serum IL-12 or TNF-α and the values of ESR, the numbers of PB ESAT-6-specific IFN-γ-secreting T cells, and CFP-10-specific IFN-γ-secreting T cells, ADA and LDH in those patients were analyzed by the Spearman rank correlation test. Data shown are the values of individual patients (n = 25).
