Correlation coefficient matrix of EED biomarkers (anti-flagellin and anti-LPS Igs) and measures of SI (AGP and CRP) for 548 Ugandan infants aged 6 mo old1
| Anti-flagellin IgA, OD | Anti-flagellin IgG, OD | Anti-LPS IgA, OD | Anti-LPS IgG, OD | AGP, g/L | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anti-flagellin IgA, OD | |||||
| Anti-flagellin IgG, OD | 0.500*** | ||||
| Anti-LPS IgA, OD | 0.887*** | 0.439*** | |||
| Anti-LPS IgG, OD | 0.436*** | 0.731*** | 0.501*** | ||
| AGP, g/L | 0.191*** | 0.157** | 0.193*** | 0.142** | |
| CRP, mg/L | 0.173*** | 0.168** | 0.163** | 0.181*** | 0.671*** |
Values are Pearson correlation coefficients. All biomarkers were log-transformed before analysis. **P < 0.001, ***P < 0.0001. AGP, ɑ1-acid glycoprotein; CRP, C-reactive protein; EED, environmental enteric dysfunction; Ig, immunoglobulin; OD, optical density; SI, systemic inflammation.
