From: Cytokine and chemokine kinetics in natural human dengue infection as predictors of disease outcome


Cytokines associated with acute dengue infection. The level of (a) proinflammatory cytokines, (b) Anti-inflammatory cytokines, (c) Chemoattractant cytokines and (d) Antiviral cytokines. Each dot represents the level of cytokine from each sample. The 3 left columns include all samples, Kruskal–Wallis test was used to compare 4 groups of independent data (p value indicated in each graph). Kruskal–Wallis statistics with Dunn’s multiple comparisons test were used to compare between 2 groups indicated. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001. Median and interquartile ranges were shown in each group. Left most column: combined DF and DHF, second column: DHF only, third column: DF only. The 3 right columns include only dependent data from the same patients (each line connects between paired samples). Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test was used to compare between 2 groups indicated. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001. The 4th column: combined DF and DHF, 5th column: DHF only, 6th column: DF only.
