Comparison of serum concentrations of IL-38, periostin, IL-5, IL-13, IL-17, IL-6, IFN-γ and IL-1β between asthmatic patients with or without steroid treatment, and control subjects. Serum IL-38, periostin, IL-5, IL-13, IL-17, IL-6, IFN-γ and IL-1β were measured using ELISA and multiplex assay kit. Results are presented as box and whisker plots with median (interquartile range). Statistical significances were indicated by * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 (Mann-Whitney U test). S-asthma: steroid-treated asthmatic patients, NS-asthma: non-steroid-treated asthmatic patients, control: control subjects.
