Shown are the Spearman's Rank correlation co-efficients for the associations between Plasmodium falciparum schizont Ag (Pfs)-IgG3 levels and Schistosoma mansoni adult worm Ag (SWA) specific IgG3 and IgG4 levels during low and high malaria transmission time points. All correlations were significant (p < 0.001).
