Influence of obesity on monocytes in non-diabetic (ND) patients with or without sepsis status. Distribution changes in the percentage of monocytes among the total leukocyte population (A) and the percentage of CD14+ monocytes (B) and CD33+ monocytes among the monocyte population (C). (D) Surface phenotype expression of CD16 on positive monocytes determined by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). Data are presented by scatter with bar plots. Due to the small sample size, the obese group was not divided into sepsis (n = 11) and septic shock (n = 1) subgroups, rather presented as a combined “septic” group. Results are medians with interquartile range. Kruskal–Wallis test and Mann–Whitney U-test were, respectively, used to analyze the differences among three groups and two groups. Significant difference is marked by *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01.
