Figure 2. Comparison of NETs and C5a between the patient and HC group.
Statistical analysis showed that the serum level of NETs (Fig. 2A) and C5a (Fig. 2B) in patient group was significantly higher than that in HC group, respectively.
Graphs represent arithmetic mean ± standard deviation. Statistical analysis was performed by two-tailed unpaired t test with Welch’s correction.
C5a: fragment a of the fifth complement; HC: healthy control; NETs: neutrophil extracellular traps; OD: optical density.
