Figure 2.

Score plot from factor analysis showing scores from factor 1 (acute-phase inflammation) and 2 (Th1 cellular immunity) labeled by outcome status (GD or healthy control). The filled symbols indicate the central estimates, and the dark-shaded zones and the light-shaded zones the 50 percentile and the 95 percentile, respectively. The scale on each axis is SD of the factor scores. The difference between Graves disease (GD) and healthy control was 0.69 SD on factor 1 and 0.83 SD on factor 2 as indicated by dashed lines.
