Inflammatory cytokines in the comparison of control, cirrhosis, and cirrhosis with PVT.

Inflammatory cytokines	Control	Cirrhosis	Cirrhosis with PVT
TNF-α (pg/mL)
IL-6 (pg/mL)		^a	^b,c
IL-8 (pg/mL)

IL-6: interleukin 6; IL-8: interleukin 8; TNF-α: tumor necrosis factor alpha; PVT: Portal vein thrombosis. ^a between the cirrhosis group and control group. ^b between the cirrhosis with PVT group and control group. ^c between the cirrhosis with PVT group and cirrhosis group.
