Correlation between plasma IL-17 levels in 45 active BD patients and biological parameters CRP and ESR using Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR: mm/h) and C-reactive protein (CRP: mg/L) expressed as median (range) values in active BD patients were significantly increased in active BD patients [ESR: 35.76 (2–90); CRP: 107.5 (3–260)] compared to healthy controls [ESR: 6 (2–17); CRP: 3.2 (3–9); P<0.0001]. (A): Positive correlation between plasma IL-17A level and CRP (r=0.687; P=0.0021) in active Behçet’s disease (BD). (B): Significant positive correlation was observed between plasma IL-17A level and ESR (r=0.597; P=0.003).
