From: Comparison of cytokine expression and disease severity between plasma cell-dominant and eosinophil-dominant patients in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps

Fig. 3

The correlation between the eosinophil-dominant (the percentage of Congo red-positive cells) or plasma cell-dominant (the percentage of CD138-positive cells) phenotype and the three clinically measurable disease severity scores (LMK-CT, TPS and SNOT-22) was analyzed by the Pearson R test. (a~c) Correlations between the percentages of Congo Red-positive cells and (a) LMK-CT, (b) TPS, and (c) SNOT-22 expressions. (d~f) Correlations between the percentages of CD138-positive cells and (d) LMK-CT, (e) TPS, and (f) SNOT-22 expressions. LMK-CT: Lund-Mackay computed tomography; TPS: total nasal endoscopic polyp score; SNOT-22: 22-item sinonasal outcome test; *p < 0.05 was considered to indicate a statistically significant difference
