Distance to the IgM reference profile (RP) at different time points after transplantation for sera from 41 patients. Three categories of intravenous immunoglobulin repertoire diversity (see Results for details) are defined based on the values obtained for healthy controls: normal, deviant and very deviant. (a) Patients that have a normal IgM repertoire diversity at all time points analysed. (b) Patients with a deviant IgM repertoire during at least one time point post-BMT. (c) Patients with a very deviant IgM repertoire diversity during at least one time point. A vertical bar to the right in each panel indicates the range of distances for the controls.
