Distribution of the individual values of Th1/Th2 ratios in three groups control, DPLN, and MLN patients. Individual values of the ratio are plotted with the mean (bar) for each group, and () refers to the number of individuals in each group. The mean ± SD values were as follows. Healthy normal control 8.82 ± 4.45, DPLN 25.89 ± 18.98, and MLN 4.66 ± 4.64, respectively. The value of DPLN was significantly higher than those of normal and MLN. values determined by Student’s -test.
