Categorization of seroconverters (n = 33) | Isolate C-I | Isolate C-II | Neutralization response against isolates C-I and C-II |
Responders | 7 (21%)b | 9 (27%) | 7 (21%)c |
Nonresponders | 26 (79%) | 24 (73%) | 26 (79%) |
This table shows % neutralization response demonstrated individually against isolates C-I and C-II (column 2) as well as the mean % neutralization against both isolates (column 3). The neutralization > 50% was considered as positive neutralization. Seroconverters showing < 50% neutralization and those demonstrating inconsistent positive neutralization responses between the two visits were considered as nonresponders. Seroconverters showing positive neutralization on all visits were classified as responders.
Number (%).
Of the seven responders showing neutralization against both isolates, four were early responders (responses observed within 6 months postinfection) and three were late responders (responses observed > 6 months postinfection).
