From: A study on the immunological basis of the dissociation between type I-hypersensitivity skin reactions to Blomia tropicalis antigens and serum anti-B. tropicalis IgE antibodies

Figure 1

Anti- B. tropicalis IgE antibody levels (A) and correlation between the sizes of the wheals produced by skin prick test (SPT) reaction to B. tropicalis extract and anti- B. tropicalis IgE antibody levels (B) in 32 individuals. Serum anti-B. tropicalis IgE antibody levels and total IgE were assessed by indirect ELISA as described in the Methods section. Each symbol represents the result obtained from an individual serum. The horizontal solid lines represent the median value of the group results, and the horizontal dashed line represents the assay cut-off. *, p < 0.05, Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman's correlation.
