Figure 5. Maternal microchimerism at birth is positively associated with T cell responses to BCG vaccination.

Figure 5

(A) Polyfunctionality score (PFS) at week 7 and week 15 of life by detection of maternal microchimerism (MMc) at birth (N = no [purple], Y = yes [red]). (B) Association between PFS at week 7 (light green) and week 15 (green) of life and level of MMc per 100,000 genomic equivalents (gEq) at birth. Delta represents the adjusted effect size per 10/100,000 gEq. (C) PFS at week 7 and week 15 of life by detection of MMc at the concurrent time point (N = no [purple], Y = yes [red]). (D) Association between PFS at week 7 (light green) and week 15 (green) of life and level of MMc per 100,000 gEq at the concurrent time point. Delta represents the adjusted effect size per 10/100,000 gEq. Horizontal black lines in A and C indicate mean values, and black lines in B and D indicate best fit lines.
