Evaluation of antibody serology to determine current helminth and Plasmodium falciparum infections in a co-endemic area in Southern Mozambique

Fig 2

Areas under the curve from receiver operating characteristic curve analysis for helminth-specific IgG levels in the whole population (A) or stratified by age (B). Dashed lines represent the accuracy thresholds: null if AUC < 0.5, low if 0.5 ≤ AUC > 0.7, moderate if 0.7 ≤ AUC > 0.9 and high if AUC ≥ 0.9. AUC: Area Under the Curve; CI: Confidence Interval; M: Microscopy; P: qPCR; MP: Microscopy and qPCR combined. Asc: Ascaris spp.; Hoo: Hookworm; Tri: Trichuris spp.; Str: Strongyloides stercoralis; Sch: Schistosoma spp.; Sh: Schistosoma haematobium; Sm: Schistosoma mansoni. Complementary information for this figure can be found in S2 Table.
