- The Mann–Whitney U test was performed to analyzed differences in the levels of IL-1β, CXCL8, and TNF between G1 and G2 bone density groups. The Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used to test correlations between IL-1β, CXCL8, and TNF-α concentrations in G1 and G2 bone density groups. Statistical significance was set at p = 0.05
