Figure 3
The cytokine and chemokine expression profiles of HFMD patients from Singapore showed significant differences between the two major etiological agents they were infected with. The statistical analyses were performed using GraphPad Prism version 4.0 (GraphPad software, USA), using Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test (without Gaussian distribution assumption) coupled with Dunns post-test. All p-values were automatically adjusted by the program to account for false discovery rates associated with multiple comparisons. *p value < 0.05, **p value < 0.01, ***p value < 0.001. All p values stated were referenced to the healthy cohort, unless otherwise indicated by lines. Healthy refers to healthy volunteers, KKH_CA6 refers to CV-A6 cases, and KKH_EV71 refers to EV-A71 cases from Singapore cohort.
