Monocyte subclasses association with clinical and adipose tissue parameters.

<p><b>A)</b> Spearman Correlation analysis between clinical parameters and omental adipose tissue parameter and % circulating monocyte subclass (CM-classical monocytes; IM-intermediate monocytes; NCM-non-classical monocytes). <b>B)</b> Distribution of the patients' cohort to %NCM-low and–high according to the median value (13.2%). Omental ATM lipid content was compared between %NCM-low and %NCM-high <b>C)</b> in the whole cohort (n = 32 vs. n = 33, respectively), or separately <b>D)</b> in men (left graph, n = 13 vs. n = 11, respectively) and in women (right graph, n = 19 vs. n = 22, respectively). Adipose tissue chemokine expression was compared between %NCM-low and %NCM-high <b>E)</b> in the whole cohort (n = 11 vs. n = 15, respectively), or separately <b>F)</b> in men (left graph, n = 4 vs. n = 6, respectively) and in women (right graph, n = 7 vs. n = 9, respectively). Statistical comparison was obtained by the Mann-Whitney U test. *p< 0.05, **p<0.01.
