Figure 4A showed that the KL‐6 level (1558, 726‐2772.5) in the ILD group detected by SYSTEM A was significantly higher than that in the lung cancer group (339, 207‐424), other respiratory disease group (249, 194‐366), and control group (198, 131.5‐297; Kruskal‐Wallis H = 63.19, P < .01), but there was no statistically significant difference between the lung cancer, other respiratory disease, and control groups. The gene discussed is MUC1; the disease is lung carcinoma.
