Clinical Significance of Peripheral Blood T Lymphocyte Subsets in Helicobacter pylori-Infected Patients
Figure 2
(a) The percentage of Th1 cells and Th2 cells. Left and right figures show the percentage of Th1 and Th2 cells, respectively. White columns represent the data of normal subjects, and black columns represent the data of H. pylori-infected patients. Data are given as mean ± SD. There was no significant difference in the percentage of Th1 cells in H. pylori-infected patients (mean ± SD; %) and control subjects (mean ± SD; %). However, the percentage of Th2 cells in H. pylori-infected patients (mean ± SD; %) was significantly higher than in control subjects (mean ± SD; %), (). (b) Comparison of Th1/Th2 ratio. White columns represent the data of normal subjects, and black columns represent the data of H. pylori-infected patients. Data are given as mean ± SD. The Th1/Th2 ratio was significantly lower in H. pylori-infected patients (mean ± SD; ) compared to control subjects (mean ± SD; ) ().
