Differences in the levels of cytokines in plasma of naive and low- and high-episode children. Cytokine levels determined by Luminex cytokine array were parameterised as log fluorescence and tested using a three-way Kruskal-Wallis test between naive, low-episode and high-episode groups. Post-hoc Dunn’s tests were performed on cytokines with significant differences. *p = 0.05, **p = 0.01, ***p = 0.005
