a

The expression levels are standardized relative to the expression of HPRT1 in the same reaction. FC, fold change (a value of >1 indicates increased expression in the first clinical category of each comparison compared to the second).

b

P values for paired t test. Using the Bonferroni correction, the critical significance threshold level is a P value of <0.001.

c

P values for unpaired t test. Using the Bonferroni correction, the critical significance threshold level is a P value of <0.001.

d

As determined by analysis of variance of the expression level of the gene across the three clinical categories.

e

For IL19, only cases or controls where expression was detected are included.

f

That is, the ratio of IL13/IL13RA expression.
