A Concentrations of C5a in the sera from pancreatitis patients, and correlation between ANGPTL4 and C5a in the sera from pancreatitis patients (n = 90). The box plots show a typical display consisting of a median value depicted by the line in the center of the box; an interquartile range (IQR; 25th to the 75th percentile) depicted by the box; and the maximum (Q3+1.5*IQR) and minimum (Q1-1.5*IQR) values depicted by the whisker. Statistical significance of Mann-Whitney U-tests is indicated (*** P < 0.001). Exact P values are shown in Appendix Table S2. The correlation between C5a and ANGPTL4 is depicted with Pearson correlation coefficient (R). Each dot represents the levels of C5a and ANGPTL4 from an individual patient (n = 90). The immunofluorescent expression of C5a and amylase was observed in pancreatitis and adjacent normal regions in patient tissues. Scale bar represents 50 µm
