Fig 1 Endothelial marker levels of patients with HAE between and during attacks. VWF:Ag (A), VWF:CBA (B), sE-selectin (C), and ET-1 (D) were compared. The Wilcoxon matched pairs test (VWF:Ag, VWF:CBA, and sE-selectin) or the parametric paired t test (ET-1) was used for comparisons. P values and the direction of change are indicated (n = 18). Normal ranges are shown in Table I. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology , DOI: ( /j.jaci ) Copyright © 2014 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions

Fig 2 Comparison of endothelial marker levels in nonsmoking subgroups of patients with HAE (n = 13). Inter-attack and during-attack samples were compared for VWF:Ag (A), VWF:CBA (B), sE-selectin (C), and ET-1 (D). The Wilcoxon matched pairs test (VWF:CBA, sE-selectin, and ET-1) or the parametric paired t test (VWF:Ag) was used for comparison. P values are indicated. Normal ranges are shown in Table I.

Fig 3 Comparison of endothelial marker levels in danazol-treated and nontreated subgroups of patients with HAE. Inter-attack (IA) and during-attack (DA) samples were compared for VWF:Ag (A) and VWF:CBA (B). The Wilcoxon matched pairs test was used for comparison in both danazol-treated (n = 7) and non–danazol-treated (n = 9) subgroups. P values are indicated. Normal ranges are shown in Table I.

Fig 4 Distribution of EC markers during multiple attacks in the same patients with HAE. VWF:Ag (A), VWF:CBA (B), sE-selectin (C), and ET-1 (D) were assessed in 8 patients with more than 1 during-attack sample. Each during-attack (DA) value was divided by the corresponding inter-attack (IA) value, and these ratios were plotted as open circles. The medians of the ratios are presented as a solid line. The values under the dotted line represent decreased levels, whereas those above the dotted line correspond to increased EC marker levels.
