Matrix Metalloproteinase-9: Its Interplay with Angiogenic Factors in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

<table>The distribution of serum MMP-9 concentrations in the studied groups of IBD. CDa: active Crohn’s disease; CDi: inactive Crohn’s disease; UCa: active ulcerative colitis; UCi: inactive ulcerative colitis. Open circles represent MMP-9 serum concentration of individual subjects. Dark triangles represent median values accompanied by 95% confidence interval represented as horizontal bars. The groups with the same indices do not differ statistically.</table>
