Figure 1
A logistic regression model using a quadratic effect for age is shown in panel (A) for each randomized group (top line, gray for peanut avoidance, bottom line, green for peanut consumption). The actual data are provided as bar charts in panel (B), and the fraction of allergic to total participants is annotated above each bar (left bars, gray for peanut avoidance, right bars, green for peanut consumption). The y-axis displays predicted probabilities for the regression model and the proportion allergic for the bar charts.
