Prevalence and reactivity index of IgG subclasses to PvAMA-1 and PvMSP-119. 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 IgG subclasses to PvAMA-119 among groups; b IgG subclasses reactivity index for PvAMA-1 among; c prevalence of PvMSP-119 IgG subclasses in M, CI, PI and N groups; d IgG subclasses reactivity index directed for PvMSP-119 among M, CI, IP and N groups. X2 with Yates correction was used to evaluate subclasses differences into the 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
