Conversion graph between the quantified values of the independent and dependent variables. The abscissa (x-axis) represents the value before variable conversion, and the ordinate (y-axis) represents the quantified SFCs to ESAT-6 or CFP-10 grading. a Patients with a history of previous treatment showed decreased SFCs to ESAT-6 grading. b Quantified SFCs to ESAT-6 grading increased with an increase in the number of CD4+ T lymphocytes. c Quantified SFCs to ESAT-6 grading increased with an increase in the number of PLT. d Quantified SFCs to CFP-10 grading increased with an increase in PDW grading. e Quantified SFCs to CFP-10 grading increased with an increase in alpha-2 globulin grading. CFP-10 Culture filtrate protein 10 kDa, ESAT-6 Early secreted antigenic target 6 kDa, SFCs Spot-forming cells
