Comparison of Peripheral Lymphocyte Subsets Between Patients with Different Disease Stages of Imaging
Based on the classification method described previously, we reclassified the patients with perfect clinical data based on imaging and divided the patients into three groups, 34 in mild group, 60 in fibrosis group. (Table 5 ) We found that the percentage and the absolute number of T cells, particularly CD4+ T cells were indeed statistically different. T cells and CD4+ T cells were negatively correlated with disease progression. No significant correlation was found for the percentage and the absolute number of each of the other peripheral lymphocytes.
