Figure 2

Distribution characteristics and significances of the Treg, Th, and Tfh cells in 30 leiomyoma patients and 68 controls. (a) The flow analyses of regulatory T (Treg), helper T (Th), and follicular helper T (Tfh) cells. (b, d, f, l) The comparison of above cells between patients and controls. (c) The correlations of Treg cells with CA125 and red blood cells (RBC), respectively. (e, g) The associations of Th2 and Tfh cells with menstrual cycle, respectively. (j) The association between Tfh1 cells with CA125 and pelvic diseases, respectively. (k) The association between the ratio Tfh1/Tfh2 with CA125, menstrual duration, and the numbers of myomas in each case. (l) The association between Tfh17 cells with myoma number. . . . ns, not significant.
