Table 4.

Correlation between TEWL and ceramide levels

Species of Cers Total Cers Cer-AP Cer-BDS Cer-EOS Cer-NDS Cer-NP Cer-NS Cer-OS
Correlation Coefficients with TEWL* 0.23336 0.061623 0.21673 0.34001 0.48352 0.08259 0.46858 0.27462
P value 0.14 0.7 0.17 0.03 0.002 0.61 0.002 0.08

*Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient was used to show the association between CER profiles and TEWL index. Note that Cer-EOS, Cer-NDS and Cer-NS in the table have significant positive correlations with the corresponding TEWL indexes (P < 0.05)
