From: Inhaled corticosteroid use is associated with increased circulating T regulatory cells in children with asthma

Figure 3

Peripheral blood Treg cells are increased in asthmatic children using inhaled corticosteroids independent of asthma severity. The percentage of Treg cells in the peripheral blood is elevated in asthmatics treated intermittently (Int) or daily with ICS. Data are expressed as the percentage of Treg cells within gated CD3 + CD4+ T cells with 95% CI. No asthma: 6.4% (6.08, 6.73); Asthma no ICS: 6.24% (5.64, 6.84); Asthma Int ICS: 7.42% (6.54, 8.31); Asthma daily ICS: 7.34% (6.74, 7.94).
