Effect of Endometrial Injury on Secretion of Endometrial Cytokines and IVF Outcomes in Women with Unexplained Subfertility

Figure 1

Concentrations of soluble mediators in aspirates of endometrial secretions in the EI and NEI groups. The expression of cytokine profiles [eotaxin, IFN-γ, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12 (p70), IL-13, TNF-α, MCP-1, and VEGF] of endometrial secretions obtained before ET from 66 patients (NEI: 28; EI: 38) was analyzed. The box plot horizontal lines represented the median and the 25th–75th percentile. The values obtained are the results of the Mann-Whitney test.
