Proportion of lamina propria Tregs in surgical patients with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) versus non-NEC surgical controls. a Representative plot of the CD4+CD25+Foxp3+T cell population in surgical NEC and non-NEC surgical control patients. b Expression of lamina propria Treg/Thelper cell ratio by postnatal age. c Percentage of CD3+ T cells in the lymphocyte population from the ileal lamina propria of surgical NEC or non-NEC surgical control patients. d Percentage of Thelper cells in CD3+ T cells from ileal lamina propria of surgical NEC or non-NEC control patients. e Treg/Thelper cell ratio from ileal lamina propria cells of surgical NEC patients or non-NEC surgical control patients. Error bars indicate median and interquartile range. The Mann–Whitney U test was used for comparisons between NEC and control groups
