Aqueous humour assay values in experimental groups (I)
| Group | Mean (SEM) (ng/ml) | |
|---|---|---|
| TIMP-1 | CTGF | |
| The group means were compared and analysed using Fisher’s PLSD test and Bonferroni/Dunn test after one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated a significant difference (StatView, SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA) | ||
| *p <0.01 compare with control (significant for both Fisher’s PLSD and Bonferroni/Dunn tests). | ||
| †p <0.05 compare with control (significant only for Fisher’s PLSD test). | ||
| A:(A1+A2+A3) All PXF | 9.76 (1.10)* (n = 56) | 4.38 (0.65)† (n = 36) |
| A1: (PXF grade I) | 5.33 (0.57) (n = 9) | 3.44 (1.03) (n = 5) |
| A2: (PXF grade II) | 10.34 (1.47) (n = 37) | 3.89 (0.65) (n = 24) |
| A3: (PXF grade III) | 11.61 (2.55) (n = 10) | 6.74 (2.28) (n = 7) |
| B: Uveitis | 14.92 (3.38) (n = 11) | 7.07 (1.98) (n = 12) |
