Figure 4

Box plot comparing the scores obtained by the different experimental groups for qualitative microscopic grading of cartilage and synovial alterations (decalcified samples). Outside values were defined as the values that were smaller than the lower quartile minus 1.5 times the interquartile range or larger than the upper quartile plus 1.5 times the interquartile range (inner fences). CTRL: healthy + placebo; OA: osteoarthritis + placebo; CTRL + DC: healthy + diacerein; OA + DC: osteoarthritis + diacerein. All parameters showed a non-normal distribution. Statistical significance p < 0.05: a vs. CTRL; b vs. OA; c vs. CTRL + DC; d vs. OA + DC
