Fig. 1 Adjusted and unadjusted prevalence of sensitization to house dust mite in centers with participation rates higher (filled squares) and lower (open squares) than 50%. The participation rate is the proportion of all those who completed stage 1, were selected for stage 2, and provided blood samples for IgE testing. Dotted line is line of identity.
