Fig 1 Biomarkers in patients with ALPS and control groups. Dashed lines represent cut-off values used to calculate likelihood ratios. Bars denote median values. P values for the differences between groups were obtained by Mann-Whitney test and are shown above each graph (∗∗∗P < .0001; ∗∗P < .001; ∗P < .05; NS, no significant difference). HMPR, Healthy mutation-positive relative; MNR, mutation negative relative.

Fig 2 sFASL levels and combinations of biomarkers accurately predict FAS mutations. A, Scatter plot showing sFASL levels. Increasing (B) and decreasing (C) probabilities for having a FAS mutation according to the percentage of αβ-DNT cells, levels of vitamin B12, IL-10, IL-18, sFASL, and results of FAS-induced apoptosis assay. Bars denote median values. P values for the differences between groups were obtained by Mann-Whitney test and are shown above each graph (∗∗∗P < .0001; ∗∗P < .001; ∗P < .05; NS, no significant difference). HMPR, Healthy mutation-positive relative. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology , e6DOI: ( /j.jaci ) Copyright © 2010 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions
