Prevalence and reactivity index of IgG antibodies to P. vivax AMA1 and MSP-119 recombinant antigens. M individuals infected with Plasmodium only, CI individuals co-infected with Plasmodium and intestinal parasites, IP individuals infected with intestinal parasites only and N negative for both malaria and intestinal parasites. a Prevalence of PvAMA-1 IgG in M, CI, IP and N groups. b IgG Reactivity Index for PvAMA-1 among M, CI, IP and N groups. c Prevalence of PvMSP-119 IgG in M, CI, IP and N groups. d IgG Reactivity Index for PvMSP-119 among M, CI, IP and N groups. In b and d panels, the horizontal bolded-bar in the Box and whisker plot represents the median value and all individual data points are shown as dots. Whiskers extend ×1.5 of the interquartile range or to the minimum/maximum value, when these fall within ×1.5 of the interquartile range. Differences of reactivity index values were calculated from pairwise test for multiple comparisons of mean rank sums (Nemenyi-Tests) and all differences of prevalence between groups were calculated using X2 with Yates correction. Significant statistical differences are represented in the bars and the level of significance expressed as *P < 0.05, **P < 0.001, ***P < 0.0001
