From: Non-infected preterm parturition is related to increased concentrations of IL-6, IL-8 and MCP-1 in human cervix

Figure 1

IL-6 concentration in the cervical tissue in all study groups. Protein concentration of IL-6 is expressed in picograms/mg of total protein. The groups are: preterm labour (PTL), term labour (TL), preterm not in labour (PTnotL), term not in labour (TnotL). The number of patients analysed in each group is marked in each bar in the bar chart. The box represents median value with 25%–75% of all data falling within the box. The whiskers extend to the non-outlier range. Outliers are marked as circles. Significant differences between the groups are shown above the box plots.
