Vertical scatter plots of (A) DAPK, (B) pSTAT3Y705, and (C) TNF scores grouped by sample type (non-IBD, inactive ulcerative colitis, low-active UC, highly active UC, and UC-associated carcinoma). A nonparametric Mann-Whitney test was performed to evaluate significance between two sample groups as depicted (where P ≤ 0.05) above the scatter plot.
