Box-and-whisker plots showing the relative levels of selected potential biomarkers for AS in (a) plasma, b) urine and c) tissue. Horizontal line in the middle portion of the boxes represents the median; bottom and top boundaries of boxes represent the lower and upper quartiles, respectively; and whiskers represent the 5th and 95th percentiles.
