2 Fig. 1 VEGF levels of ALS patients and controls.
Levels of VEGF in the CSF (A) and serum (B) of ALS patients and control subjects. * shows that the VEGF levels in CSF and serum are significantly higher in ALS patients than those in control subjects (P=0.009 and P<0.001, respectively).

3 Fig. 2 Correlations between CSF (A) and serum (B) VEGF levels of ALS patients and their duration. A, B: The correlations between CSF and serum VEGF levels with the duration of ALS patients are positive and significant (P=0.0432, P=0.0219, respectively).

4 Fig. 3 CSF and serum VEGF levels of ALS patients in duration (0–12months) subgroup and duration (12+months) subgroup. * shows that the VEGF levels in CSF (A) and serum (B) of ALS patients are significantly higher in duration (12+months) subgroup than those in duration (0–12months) subgroup (P=0.040 and P=0.039, respectively).

5 Fig. 4 Correlations between CSF (A) and serum (B) VEGF levels of ALS patients and their disease progression rate (DPR). A, B: The correlations between CSF and serum VEGF levels with the disease progression rate (DPR) of ALS patients are negative and significant (P=0.0482, P=0.0353, respectively).

6 Fig. 5 CSF and serum VEGF levels of ALS patients in DPR (0–1) subgroup and DPR (1+) subgroup. * shows that the VEGF levels in serum (B) of ALS patients are significantly higher in DPR (0–1) subgroup than those in DPR (1+) subgroup (P=0.025).
