Increase in plasma IL-5 level on day 1 posttreatment and the accompanying in vitro decrease in SWA-induced cytokines. Subjects were divided into four equal groups based on the increase in their plasma IL-5 levels between pretreatment and 1 day posttreatment (n = 16 per group). The IL-5 (A), IL-13 (B), and IL-10 (C) responses to SWA of the four groups in cultures established before treatment (open boxes) and at 1 day posttreatment (hatched boxes) are shown as box plots as defined in the legend to Fig. 2. Groups where there was a significant difference (Wilcoxon signed rank test) between pretreatment and 1 day posttreatment are indicated by ** (P = 0.001 to 0.01) and * (P = 0.01 to 0.05).
