Comparison of indirect and inhibitory ELISA methods for determination of anti-IFN-γ autoantibody. Anti-IFN-γ autoantibody titers were measured from heparinized plasma samples by indirect and inhibitory ELISA. A scatter dot plot presents the absorbance index of indirect ELISA from NTM infection patients (inhibitory ELISA positive n = 76, and negative n = 6), lymphadenopathy without infection (n = 20), and non-infected controls (n = 20). The dashed line represents the diagnosis cut-off. Statistically significant differences were further analyzed using ANOVA (Kruskal-Wallis test) with Dunn’s multiple comparisons post-test, ***P < 0.001 and ****P < 0.0001 (A). Correlation of positive results (n = 68) between the Log10 absorbance index from indirect ELISA was compared to Log10 titer from inhibitory ELISA using linear regression (B).
