Table 2.

Upper limit of normal (ULN), 97.5 % percentiles and cutoffs for autoantibody (autoAb) testing to tissue transglutaminase 2 (TG2)

	ULN (U/mL)	97.5 % percentile (U/mL)	Cutoff (U/mL)
ED (n = 68)	1.65	1.94	3.91^a
BD (n = 91)	1.15	1.42	1.71^b
ED + BD (n = 159)	1.41	1.54	3.91^c

TG2autoAb were determined by CytoBead CeliAK in 130 pediatric/adolescent patients with celiac disease (CD) (<18 years) and 24 adult patients (≥18 years) as well as pediatric patients with eye disease (ED) and blood donors (BD) and subjected to receiver operating characteristics curve analysis. ULN (mean + 2 standard deviations), 97.5 % percentiles, and cutoffs were calculated. Total sample numbers can differ due to lack of human material or assay failure

^aROC: CD <18 years vs ED

^bROC: CD ≥18 years vs BD

^cROC: CD vs ED + BD
