Distribution of absolute change in alpha-gal IgE sensitization across paired samples, grouped by tick bite exposure represented by boxplots. For each group, the box is bound by the upper and lower quartile of data as distributed about the median, vertical lines extend from the box to the maximum and minimum ranges of the data estimated by 1.5*interquartile range. Data points representing the absolute change in alpha-gal IgE for each sample overlay the boxplots. Abbreviations: IgE, immunoglobulin E
