Figure Lengend Snippet: Overview of MFI values of CD86 expression measured by flow cytometry. The MFI values of the CD86 antibody in flow cytometry are presented as a boxplot (median and interquartile range) and divided into four subgroups based on the type of treatment: “+ESWT” ( n = 10), “–ESWT“ ( n = 10), “Untreated” ( n = 9), and “Positive Control Gel” ( n = 6). Individual data points are represented as dots in the bar chart. Macrophages from the same patient are consistently color-coded across all images. No statistically significant differences could be observed between the groups (“–ESWT” vs. “+ESWT” : p = 0.912; “+ESWT” vs. “Untreated” : p = 0.154; “+ESWT” vs. “Positive Control Gel” : p = 0.780; “–ESWT” vs. “Untreated” : p = 0.178; “–ESWT” vs. “Positive Control Gel” : p = 0.695; “Untreated” vs. “Positive Control Gel” : p = 0.060).
