In the T2D + DED group, there were negative relationships between IL-10 versus TER (rs = −0.3, p = 0.05; Table S2), IL-1β versus TER (rs = −0.3, p = 0.02), IL-1RA versus fTBUT (rs = −0.3, p = 0.04), IL-1RA versus Schirmer 1 values (rs = −0.5, p < 0.001), IL-6 versus fTBUT (rs = −0.3, p = 0.05) and MCP-1 versus Schirmer 1 values (rs = −0.3, p = 0.03). Here, CCL2 is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
