2.6 Statistical analysis
Correlations among αs1-, β-, and κ-CN-specific IgE were analyzed by
Pearson’s correlation analysis. Differences among the inhibition rate of
CN components were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Calculations were performed with EZR software produced by the Jichi
Medical University Saitama Medical Center (Saitama,
Japan).9 Data are expressed as the mean ± standard
deviation (SD). Differences with P values of less than 0.05 were
considered statistically significant.
