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.
