From: Increased expression of NLRP3 associated with elevated levels of HMGB1 in children with febrile seizures: a case–control study

Fig. 1

Comparison of serum levels of HMGB1 (a), NLRP3 (b), caspase-1 (c), IL-1β (d), IL-6 (e), and TNF-α (f) between the febrile seizure group and the control group. The median (interquartile range) values are indicated by three parallel lines. Analysis of serum cytokine levels between the two groups was performed by the Mann‒Whitney U test. HMGB1, NLRP3, caspase-1, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α levels were significantly higher in the febrile seizure group than in the control group (p < 0.05 indicates a significant difference)
