Figure 6. Effect of POMS Patients' Corpulence on Hyperproteinorachia and Vitamin D Levels.

Figure 6

(A) Predicted probabilities (black lines with 95% CI) of observing hyperproteinorachia (>0.4 g/L) as a function of corpulence (rBMI) at the first hospitalization for boys (nonsignificant effect of rBMI) and girls (the probability increases with patient's corpulence). (B) The vitamin D concentration (ng/mL) decreases with increasing corpulence in boys (black line with 95% CI, prediction from the model) but remains roughly constant in girls. The raw measurements are overlayed, and geometric shapes with different colors represent each patient's IOTF categories. IOTF = International Obesity Task Force; rBMI = residual body mass index; POMS = pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis.
