Fig. 1.

Plasma inflammatory (a) and regulatory (b) cytokine responses to malaria across age groups. Data are presented as scatter plots across age groups and timepoints. Boxes represent medians and whiskers represent the IQR of each group. Significant differences across age groups were assessed by Wilcoxon rank sum and the Wilcoxon sign-rank test was used for pairwise comparisons between timepoints. Only P values < 0.05 are shown. *Denotes p values that are not statistically significant (P > 0.0125) after Bonferroni multiple comparisons testing. Samples below the limit of detection are shown at the lower limit of detection. Only cytokines for which > 7% of samples were above the limit of detection appear in the figure
