From: Plasma cytokine profiling in sibling pairs discordant for autism spectrum disorder
Cytokine increased in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with gastrointestinal (GI) issues. We assessed children with ASD with GI issues (n = 7) and their siblings (n = 7), as well as children with ASD with no GI issues (n = 18) and their siblings (n = 18). The boxes stretch from the 25th to the 75th percentile, the lines across the boxes indicate the median values, and the lines stretching from the boxes indicate extreme values. Statistical significance (P<0.05) is reported.
