Box Plot from Scientific Research

Age, BMI and calprotectin are associated with diagnosis groups. The patients without lesions were younger (n = 589, two-sided KW test χ 2 = 35.77, adjusted P = 2.6 × 10 −7 ; phD tests) and had lower BMI (n = 553, two-sided KW test χ 2 = 15.73, adjusted P = 1.9 × 10 −3 ; phD tests), while patients with tumors had higher fecal calprotectin levels (n = 583, two-sided KW test χ 2 = 29.43, adjusted P = 3.0 × 10 −6 ; phD tests, adjusted *** P <0.001, ** P <0.01, * P <0.05 and n.s., non-significant P > 0.05; Supplementary Table 3). The box plot center represents the median value whiskers extend from the quartiles to the last data point within 1.5 times of the interquartile range, with outliers beyond.
