Fig. 1 Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves of the Campylobacter ELISA. ROC curves are based on the values obtained for uncomplicated Campylobacter enteritis patients (n = 162) and healthy controls (n = 482). (a) IgA. (b) IgM. (c) IgG.

Fig. 2 Scatterplots of ratios for (a) IgA, (b) IgM and (c) IgG in the Campylobacter ELISA for various patient groups. Each dot represents one serum sample. Bars indicate the median ratio for each group. Dotted lines indicate the proposed cut-off values. GBS/MFS, Guillain–Barré/Miller Fisher syndrome; ReA, reactive arthritis.
