HSV1 = herpes simplex virus type 1 antibody levels in the seropositive group (N = 301), EBV = Epstein barr virus antibody levels in the seropositive group (N = 305), CMV = cytomegalovirus antibody levels in the seropositive group (N = 306), HHV6 = human herpes virus 6 antibody levels in the seropositive group (N = 1117). AU = arbitrary units. All analyses were adjusted for sex, BMI, and affective problems and symptom scores in the other symptom group.
