aThe Gold Standard positive is defined as a sample (stool or paired urine) with at least a single egg in the 6-fold KK stool analysis or a CAA level > 0.3 pg/mL in urine as determined with the UCAA2000 assay.

bFalse negatives are defined against the Gold Standard and calculated by ‘False Negatives = 48 – True Positives’.

cNumber of UCAA2000 positives (including 16 additional positives, Figure 4).
