Predicted probabilities of asthma, rhinitis and wheeze for the Lasso selected risks. The risks are (a) gender, (b) age, (c) birth height, (d) antibiotic use, (e) paternal allergy, (f) maternal allergy, (g) living close to highway and (h) furry pets. (a) Gender. (b) age. (c) Birth length. (d) Antibiotic use. (e) Paternal allergy. (f) Maternal allergy. (g) Living close to highway. (h) Furry pets. Footnote: Only variables selected by group LASSO for each disease – asthma, rhinitis and wheeze – are included. The horizontal lines represent median values and boxes represent 25th-75th percentile range, and the whiskers extend to the 5th and 95th percentiles.
