2.5. Statistical analysis
Statistical analyses were performed using GraphPad Prism software
version 9.3.1 (GraphPad Software) to evaluate the differences in mRNA
expression of three placental models exposed to pro-inflammatory
cytokines or inflammation stimulants. The data obtained are presented as
mean ± SD and median ± interquartile range of at least three
independent experiments where appropriate. The statistical significance
of differences between groups was analyzed with one-way analysis of
variance (ANOVA) or nonparametric Wilcoxon signed rank test where
appropriate.
