Cytokine levels in HBeAg-positive patients and HBeAg-negative patients. Circulating IFNα, IFNγ, TNFα, granzyme, IL-8, and IL-6 levels in HBeAg-positive patients (red dots) and HBeAg-negative patients (blue dots). Shaded areas indicate 95% confidence intervals around the regression lines. Bar graphs represent concentration of each cytokine in pre-treatment (dark red), post-treatment (light red) of HBeAg-positive and pre-treatment (dark blue), post-treatment (light blue) of HBeAg-negative patients. *p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001, ****p ≤ 0.0001.
