The quantitative analysis of the glomerular capillary network in FSGS with or without sclerosis lesion. The glomerular tuft area (a), the number of glomerular capillaries (b), the glomerular capillary/glomerulus area ratio (c), the average area of capillaries (d), and the glomerular ECM/glomerulus area ratio (e) are compared among FSGS-scl(+) glomeruli, FSGS-scl(−) glomeruli, and control glomeruli. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 Kruskal-Wallis test and for each group using Steel–Dwass test. The box corresponds to the first quartile, median (horizontal bar in the box), and third quartile, and the whiskers extend from minimum to maximum values. ECM, extracellular matrix; FSGS, focal segmental glomerular sclerosis; FSGS-scl(−), glomeruli without sclerotic lesions in FSGS; FSGS-scl(+), glomeruli with sclerotic lesions in FSGS; n.s., no significance.
