Figure 3From: Role of inflammation in previously untreated macular edema with branch retinal vein occlusion Correlations between the aqueous flare value and the vitreous fluid levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin (IL)-6, monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1), and soluble VEGF receptor-2 (sVEGFR-2). There were significant correlations between the flare value and vitreous levels of VEGF (A), IL-6 (B), MCP-1 (C), sICAM-1 (D), and sVEGFR-2 (E) in the BRVO group (ρ = 0.54, P = 0.005; ρ = 0.56, P = 0.004; ρ = 0.52, P = 0.006; ρ = 0.47, P = 0.015; and ρ = 0.20, P = 0.295, respectively).Back to article page
