a, IL-2 (two-tailed Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.41, P = 0.0003; r = 0.008, P = 0.93). b, IL-10 (two-tailed Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.20, P = 0.08; r = 0.11, P = 0.28). c, IFN-γ (two-tailed Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.46, P ≤ 0.0001; r = 0.18, P = 0.07). d, TNF-α (two-tailed Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.52, P ≤ 0.0001; r = 0.47, P ≤ 0.0001). e, IL-6 (two-tailed Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.67, P ≤ 0.0001; r = 0.59, P ≤ 0.0001). The black dots indicate seronegative donors (n = 72) and the red dots indicate seropositive donors (n = 93). Statistical analysis assessed concentration in relation to age and is shown for seronegative and seropositive donors, respectively. All fitted lines were generated using a simple linear regression.
