Figure 3. Correlations between Fusobacterium abundance and local cytokine gene expression in adenoma cases and non-adenoma controls.
Results suggest a significant positive correlation between Fusobacterium abundance and local inflammation in cases but not controls. The Correlations were significant for IL-10 (r = 0.44, p = 0.01) and TNF-α (r = 0.33, p = 0.06). *p<0.05.
