Serological investigation of IgG and IgE antibodies against food antigens in patients with inflammatory bowel disease

Figure 1 High sensitivity to food antigens in inflammatory bowel disease patients. A: Positive rate of food-specific IgG antibodies in CD patients, UC patients and HCs. Statistics: Chi-squared test; B: The number of IgG-positive food items in CD patients, UC patients and HCs; C: Comparison of the total serum IgG levels in CD patients, UC patients and HCs. Statistics: ANOVA), ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01, ^cP < 0.001. UC: Ulcerative colitis; CD: Crohn’s disease; HCs: Healthy controls; ANOVA: One-way analysis of variance.
