*All specimens were tested for all antigens. Boldface indicates nonspecific titers. Cutoff titers for seropositivity (immunoglobulin [Ig] G or IgM) were 128/64 for R. conorii and 64/32 for other antigens (8). A rickettsial antigen was considered to represent the agent of infection when cross-reactions were absent or when titers of IgG or IgM antibody against this antigen were >2 serial dilutions higher than titers of IgG or IgM antibody against other rickettsial antigens.
