Fig. 5. Correlations of diagnostic findings and temporal development of the colitis-like phenotype in M. sexta.

Fig. 5

Correlations (Pearson) of the used diagnostic findings with each other. (a) Relationships between the two CT features (maximum CT-contrast-enhanced gut wall thickness and maximum signal density of the gut wall, n  =  32, r = 0.6673, 95% CI = 0.4153–0.8242, r2 = 0.4453 and two-tailed P < 0.0001). b Correlations between two MRI features (MRI-contrast-enhanced gut wall thickness and normalized T1 signal, n = 40, r = 0.4977, 95% CI = 0.2204–0.7006, r2 = 0.2477 and two-tailed P = 0.0011). c Correlations between the CT feature (CT-contrast-enhanced gut wall thickness) and the MRI feature (MRI-contrast-enhanced gut wall thickness), n = 25, r = 0.457, 95% CI = 0.07551–0.7218, r2 = 0.2089 and two-tailed P = 0.0216. d Correlations between the CT feature (CT-contrast-enhanced gut wall thickness) and the PET feature (PUVmaxn), n = 28, r = −0.4497, 95% CI = −0.7046 to −0.0924, r2 = 0.2022 and two-tailed P = 0.0164. e Correlations between the PET feature PUVmaxn (maximum standard uptake value) and the MRI features (MRI-contrast-enhanced gut wall thickness), n = 13, r = −0.8205, 95% CI = −0.9445–0492, r2 = 0.6733 and two- tailed P = 0.0006. Temporal development of the colitis-like phenotype in M. sexta at baseline conditions and after Bt treatment after 3 h, 12 h, and 24 h or 36 h in f PET, n = 63, one-way ANOVA, F(3,59) = 6.064, R2 = 0.2357, P = 0.0011, box plots: 25th–75th percentiles, whiskers: min–max (show all points), center: median, g and i CT, n = 56, Kruskal-Wallis test = 32.54, P < 0.0001 and n = 38, one-way ANOVA, F(2,35) = 35.66, R2 = 0.6708, P < 0.0001, and h, j, and l MRI, n = 78, one-way ANOVA, F(2,75) = 46.52, R2 = 0.5537, P < 0.0001, n = 51, Kruskal-Wallis test = 38.45, P < 0.0001 and n = 49, Kruskal-Wallis test = 17.36, P = 0.0002. The following significance levels have been used: ns = P > 0.05, * = P ≤ 0.05, ** P ≤ 0.01, *** = P ≤ 0.001 and **** = P ≤ 0.0001. The dashed lines in the diagrams illustrate the respective threshold values received from the ROC analysis. Error bars represent standard deviation. Bar charts represent mean and SD.
