    FIGURE 4 Correlations between the salivary biomarkers and the demographic/clinical variables in children with long COVID. Diagram showing the correlations between the salivary biomarkers and the demographic/clinical variables in children with long COVID, according to the Pearson correlation coefficients. Each intersection of the grid refers to the correlation between the two variables faced. The circle sizes show the strength of the correlations according to their P values, while the circle colors refer to the statistical significance of the correlations considering a P value ≤ 0.05 as the threshold.
