Fig. 2From: The increased ratio of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 versus 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 in chronic periodontitis irrespective of obesityComparison of the ratio of 11β-HSD1 versus 11β-HSD2 mRNA in gingival tissues between the chronic periodontitis group (P) and control group (C). Box and whisker plots of the ratio of 11β-HSD1 versus 11β-HSD2 mRNA are shown. Outliers are omitted. *P < 0.01Back to article page
