The relationship of polymorphism with serum IL-12p40 and TL1A levels in UC patients. (a) and (b) Among different genotype groups, no association was observed between the polymorphism and serum levels of IL-12p40 or TL1A in patients with UC ( , for both comparisons). P values refer to Mann-Whitney U test (for 2-group comparison) and Kruskal-Wallis test (more than 2 groups compared). Horizontal lines represent median values for each group and NS indicate no significance.
