Periodontal disease influences osteoclastogenic bone markers in subjects with and without rheumatoid arthritis - Fig 2

Abstract

Comparison of OPG levels and RANKL/ OPG ratio. Data are shown as boxplots representing the median (horizontal line), interquartile range, upper and lower limits and outliers in (A) serum OPG levels in periodontal disease (PD, n = 38), rheumatoid arthritis with PD (RA+PD, n = 19), rheumatoid arthritis without PD (RA-PD, n = 19), and healthy (H, n = 14) groups. (B) Serum RANKL/ OPG ratios. * p<0.05 ** p<0.01 *** p<0.001 au = arbitrary units.</p
