FIG. 8.

Normalized kidney IFN-γ/IL-4 (A) and splenic Th1/Th2 (B) ratios compared to survival durations of 42 infected mice (8 per group). Normalized ratios of <1 indicate the presence of a type 2 response, and ratios of >1 indicate the presence of a type 1 response. The Th1/Th2 ratios were measured at 72 h postinfection for inocula of 5 × 105 organisms and at 1 week postinfection for other inoculum levels. (A) P < 0.001 and rho = 0.7 (determined by Spearman rank sum test). (B) P > 0.1 and rho = 0.2 (determined by Spearman rank sum test).
