Geometric mean (standard deviation) of ratios of LPS, ETC-216 and MDCO-216 stimulated cytokine concentration over unstimulated (background) levels for IL-6 and TNF-α
*Ratios are underestimated as a result of stimulated samples being >ULOQ: for IL-6 in 26 (74.3%) HV, 19 (54.3%) sCAD, 16 (45.7%) aCAD; and for TNF-α in 20 (57.1%) HV, 24 (68.6%) sCAD, 6 (17.1%)
aCAD Patients with acute coronary artery disease (CAD); HV Healthy volunteers; LPS Lipopolysaccharide; sCAD Patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD); ULOQ Upper limit of quantitation
