Assessing Age-Related Etiologic Heterogeneity in the Onset of Islet Autoimmunity

Figure 4

The restricted cubic spline function for erythrocyte membrane n-3 fatty acid levels and islet autoimmunity development in the prospective DAISY cohort displays a linear decrease in risk across childhood. The x-axis represents age in years and the y-axis represents the hazard ratio on the log scale. The solid line represents the hazard ratio and the dashed lines represent the pointwise 95% confidence bands.
