Sera from patients with paragonimiasis (n = 30) were evaluated, along with sera from other parasitic infections (n = 92), pulmonary tuberculosis (n = 18) and healthy controls (n = 30). The sensitivity, specificity as well as positive and negative predictive value of the IHA, calculated at the prevalence of disease at 17.6%, were all 100%.Mahidol UniversityImmunology and MicrobiologyMedicineArticleSCOPUS10.1046/j.1365-3156.1998.00173.x
