Table 2.

Performance of the ELISA test, relative to PCR

  PCRa + PCR - Total
Diagnostic outcomes      
ELISA + 16 47 63
ELISA - 3 114 117
Total 19 161 180
Performance estimates (95% Confidence Intervals)
Cut-off S/P value 165
Area Under Curve 0.80 (0.73, 0.87)
Sensitivity 0.84 (0.60, 0.97)
Specificity 0.71 (0.63, 0.78)

aPCR results with CT values > 36 were considered negative, because the specificity was better than results with CT values >40 were considered negative.
