Changes in biomarkers over the first 18 months of life.

<p>Levels of <b>A</b>: Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), <b>B</b>: IGF-binding protein 3 (IGFBP3), <b>C</b>: Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP), <b>D</b>: Soluble CD14 (sCD14), <b>E</b>: IgG endotoxin core antibodies (EndoCAb), <b>F</b>: Interleukin-6 (IL-6), <b>G</b>: C-reactive protein (CRP) and <b>H</b>: Alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (AGP), in non-stunted (blue line) and stunted (red line) infants between birth and 18 months of age. Data shown are means with standard errors, except for IL-6, which shows medians with interquartile range (solid error bars for non-stunted infants and dashed bars for stunted infants). Mean levels, standard deviations, unadjusted and adjusted differences between cases and controls are shown in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0086928#pone.0086928.s001" target="_blank">Table S1</a>.
