Influence of Gender on Cardiac and Encephalic Inflammation in the Elderly with Cysticercosis: A Case Control Study

Table 3

Comparison of the inflammatory infiltrate in heart and brain in relation to the gender of non-elderly and elderly patients with cysticercosis.

Groups	Gender	Cardiac inflammation	Encephalic inflammation
		Med (minimum–maximum)
Elderly	Female	3.0 (1.0–51.0)^1	3.0 (1.0–12.0)^3
	Male	2.0 (1.0–23.0)^2	2.0 (1.0–6.0)^4,5
Non-elderly	Female	3.0 (1.0–16.0)	3.0 (1.0–10.0)
	Male	3.0 (1.0–89.0)	3.0 (1.0–25.0)^6
