a Detection of AF-compleasome in MOM from mothers after preterm birth using sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). AF-compleasome in MOM are expressed on the y-axis as mean absorbance values, buffer blank corrected, ± standard deviation (SD). Infant outcome related to sepsis are demonstrated on the x-axis. The boxes represent the 25th to 75th percentiles and the line in the middle represent the median. The whiskers represent the lowest and highest value in the dataset. **p < 0.01. b AF-compleasome levels in MOM in longitudinal samples week 1, 4 and 12 (n = 19) after birth related to infant sepsis using General linear model, repeated measures, p = 0.014. AF-compleasome levels (netAbs) is demonstrated on the Y-axis and sample time point (week 1, 4 and 12) demonstrated on the X-axis. The blue dotted line demonstrates longitudinal values for the group of infants who did not develop sepsis, and the red dotted line infants who developed sepsis.
