Fig. 2From: Early detection and persistent positivity of anti-Leishmania antibodies using a recombinant protein-based ELISA in naturally infected dogs in BrazilFrequency of diagnostic test positivity by rLci5 ELISA in comparison to other diagnostic methods. a Overall positivity rates of each diagnostic test evaluated. The chi-square test was used to compare numbers of positive dogs detected by rLci5 ELISA with those detected by the other diagnostic tests evaluated during the follow-up period. Results were considered significant when P < 0.05. b Percentage of early (at least 6 months earlier), simultaneous and later (6 months later or more) detection by rLci5 compared to other diagnostic methods evaluatedBack to article page
