Table 2. Sensitivities and specificities of fecal pyruvate kinase embryonic isoform M2 (M2-PK) and calprotectin (FC) in identifying patients with acute diarrhea caused by infection with rotavirus (AD-RV) and Salmonella enteritidis (AD-SE) among healthy subjects. Data are presented as sensitivity and specificity (at cut-off value).
