Significant associations between pairs of mediators and the Standardized Pentacam Score.

	IL-6 (pg/mL)	CCL5 (pg/mL)	TIMP-1 (ng/mL)	t-PA (pg/mL)
CXCL8 (pg/mL)
CCL5 (pg/mL)
MMP-9 (ng/mL)
MMP-13 (ng/mL)
t-PA (pg/mL)
PAI-1 (ng/mL)

IL: interleukin; CXCL8: chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8 = IL-8; CCL5: chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 = RANTES: regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted; MMP: matrix metalloproteinase; TIMP-1: tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1; t-PA: tissue plasminogen activator; PAI-1: plasminogen activator inhibitor.
