Table 1

The quantitative data of IL-17-positive cells expressed as percentages of all lymphocytes in bullous pemphigoid (BP) and dermatitis herpetiformis (DH).

Cases	BP (%)	DH (%)	P value (BP versus DH)
Skin lesions	7.4±4.1	3.9±2.8	𝑃<0.001
Perilesional skin	2.3±2.1	1.9±1.2	0.62 (NS)
P value (lesion versus perilesional skin)	𝑃<0.003	𝑃<0.05

NS: not significant.
