Fig. 3From: Possible involvement of neuropeptide and neurotransmitter receptors in Adenomyosisa Boxplot showing the summary results of the extent of fibrosis in adenomyotic lesions and control endometrium (Wilcoxon’s test). b Scatter plot showing the relationship between the extent of lesional fibrosis and uterine size (in cm3). Data from the women with adenomyosis (in maroon color) and control patients (in royal blue color) are represented in different colors. Pearson’s correlation coefficient, along with its statistical significance level, is also shown. The dashed line represents the regression line. c and d Boxplots showing, respectively, the difference in epithelial and stromal ADRB2 in women with adenomyosis complaining different severity of dysmenorrhea. For panels c and d, the Spearman’s correlation coefficient and its statistical significance level are shown. Symbols for statistical significance levels: **: p < 0.01; ***: p < 0.001Back to article page
