Fig. 5From: The expression and clinical significance of miR-1226 in patients with periodontitisCorrelation between miR-1226 expression level and the concentration of IL-1β (A), IL-6 (B), and TNF-α (C). The concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were negatively correlated with the expression level of miR-1226. IL-1β: r = -0.730, IL-6: r = -0.656, and TNF-α: r = -0.717; all P < 0.001 evaluated by Pearson correlation analysisBack to article page
