Associations between IgG responses and protection against malaria attacks.

*<p>Presented are only those antibody responses, from the 20 tested, found to be significantly associated with malariometric status (P<0.05 before multiple test correction); IgGt: total IgG.</p>**<p>The effect of malariometric status on IgG responses, determined by ANCOVA, was adjusted for age.</p>***<p>Significantly different after adjustment for multiple tests (Bonferroni correction, threshold of significance: P = 0.002).</p>†<p>Logistic regression was used to assess associations with protection against malaria attacks, where status (UMA vs AC groups) was used as the dependent variable against the explanatory variables (IgG subtype responses/age) shown to be significantly associated by ANCOVA. OR values were assessed for 10 AU increased.</p><p>Note: age was also independently associated with malaria protection in this analysis (P = 0.034, OR = 0.89).
