Fig. 7: Box Plots of observed, expected, and fitted values of the incidence of “Diseases of the respiratory system(J00-J99)”, 2018–2023.
From: Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on incident diagnoses in German refugee centres 2018 to 2023

Cfactual: counterfactual (expected) values given the respective age- and sex-distribution of underlying refugee population (occupancy) in reception centres at given time points. Fitted: fitted values based on negative binomial regression models, adjusted for age, sex, centre characteristics, and secular trends. Observed: crude incidence proportions, i.e., cases of individuals with one or more new diagnoses defined by the indicator variable divided by the total number of refugee centre inhabitants (occupancy). Respiratory syst. Diseases of the Respiratory System, Cum. Incidence: Cumulative Incidence, occup.: occupancy Y-axis: cumulative incidence in %. Boxes: interquartile range. Whiskers: Range. Horizontal black bar in boxes: Median. N = 836 centre-months. Source data are provided in the “source_data.xlsx” file.
