Significant correlations between changes in plasma platelet chemokine levels and inflammatory biomarker levels. After 24 weeks, correlations were detected between the change in the plasma CXCL7 level and the changes in the hsCRP (a) and IL-1β levels (b); between the change in the plasma CCL2 level and the changes in the hsCRP (c) and IL-1β levels (d); between the changes in the plasma CXCL12 and TNF-α levels (e); and between the changes in the plasma CXCL8 and sP-selectin levels (f) in the anthocyanin group. The data were evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficients (r)
