Changes in key serum clinical inflammatory markers and leukocytes composition: white blood cells (A), C reactive protein (B), interleukin-6 (C), neutrophil counts (D), lymphocyte counts (E) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (F) from baseline to 12 months after undergoing sleeve gastrectomy. Dark blue dots indicate values measured at baseline (pre-operatively) and dark red dots indicate values measured during follow-up (post-operatively). Dashed lines between dots indicate missing data for a given subject. Data for each timepoint are summarized as means and 95% confidence intervals. Significant differences adjusted for multiple testing were marked with the following thresholds: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001. T0, baseline; T3, 3 months post-op; T6, 6 months; T9, 9 months; T12, 12 months.
