a trend toward significancep = 0.060
Correlation analysis of the pairwise age-matched DLB patient and control subgroup showed that the IL-6 correlation with α-synuclein in patients with DLB stayed significant ( r = 0.601, p = 0.006), whereas the significance between IL-6 and MMSE was lost and only a trend toward significance remained ( r = −0.417, p = 0.060).
