Serum levels of IL-1β (a), IL-6 (b), TNF-α (c), and GM-CSF (d) were determined in NGT (n = 64), T1DM without MVC (n = 97) and T1DM subjects with MVC (n = 36) by ELISA. Each dot represents individual values with the horizontal line representing the geo mean. Significance was calculated by non-parametric Mann–Whitney U test and p<0.05 was considered significant. The indicated p values are for pair-wise comparisons.
