  1. The Wilcoxon-Mann–Whitney rank-sum test was used to calculate the p-values (comparison of C-A between vaccinated and unvaccinated). 1V-N is vaccinated minus unvaccinated. Listed are Ab responses (top panel, directed against A/H1N1 California, mean and confidence interval) and IFN-γ responses directed against a broad panel of flu targets (designated the flu A or flu B strains), and against matrix proteins M1 and M2. CFP10 served as control. PHA was the positive control stimulus. P values below 0.05 are indicated in bold.
