Fig. 5From: Long-term changes of Th17 and regulatory T cells in peripheral blood of dogs with spinal cord injury after intervertebral disc herniationComparison of cell counts in dogs after recovery from intervertebral disc herniation with a control groupComparison of Th17 cells, Treg cell levels and the Th17/Treg ratio from dogs after recovery ("outcome") from intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) (n = 26) with a healthy control population ("control", n = 14). The left boxplot (grey) displays the data of the "control" group. The right boxplot (light blue) displays the data of the dogs after recovery from IVDH ("outcome")a) Th17 cells in absolute cell count/µl: No significant difference between "outcome" and "control" (p = 0.3203)b) Treg cells in absolute cell count/µl: No significant difference between "outcome" and "control" (p = 0.8108)c) Th17/Treg ratio: No significant difference between "outcome" and "control" (p = 0.8959). At the time point "outcome" the ratio 227.9 was excluded from this graphic. Back to article page
