Figure 2
Comparison of serum GITRL and sGITR levels between pSS patients with or without extra-glandular manifestations. (a) Serum GITRL levels exhibited elevation in pSS patients with extra-glandular manifestations () relative to patients without extra-glandular manifestations (). (b) Serum sGITR levels were also higher in pSS patients with extra-glandular manifestations () than patients in the absence of extra-glandular manifestations (). Each symbol represents an individual patient; horizontal lines indicate median values.
