Figure 1From: Higher numbers of circulating endothelial progenitor cells in stroke patients with intracranial arterial stenosis cEPCs proportions across different groups. (A) cEPC levels in the peripheral blood of HC, CP and IAS (*P < 0.01, IAS vs. HC; # P < 0.01, IAS vs. CP). Rresults are presented as mean ± SD. (B) Differences in cEPC levels in the peripheral blood of HC and IAS according to age (*P < 0.05, <60 vs. ≥60 years old in IAS patients). Results are presented as mean ± SD. (C) Differences in cEPCs levels of IAS according to the diabetes status (*P < 0.05 vs. diabetics).Back to article page
