Mean levels of serum Soluble IL-6R in women with painful CIPN ( ) and women without CIPN symptoms (Comparison Group, ). Dots represent mean value of soluble IL-6R (sIL-6R) measured in serum; error bars represent 95% CI. Mean (SD), [Range] of the Painful CIPN group: 41.6 (9.7) ng/mL ; Comparison group: 30.2 (5.8) ng/mL . Independent t-test with Bonferroni correction performed to examine difference between groups: (t(38) = −5.1, ).
