Table 1.

Serum cytokine discriminant analysis at 4 months, before gluten introduction, between celiac disease patients (CD) and controls (CTRLs). Wilk’s lambda estimates of the capacity of each serum cytokine to discriminate between the groups once all other cytokines are considered. F is the variance ratio estimated at each step of the analysis.
