VRs have significantly higher peak IL-12/p40 ratio than NVRs When the peak level of IL-12 was compared between VRs and NVRs, VRs showed approximately a 2-fold higher level of peak plasma IL-12 than NVRs, albeit this was marginally significant (218.0±41.4 vs. 108.1±28.6 pg/ml, respectively; AVR±SEM; p=0.09, Mann-Whitney U) ( Fig. 3A ).
