Accuracy of chimeric proteins in the serological diagnosis of chronic chagas disease - a Phase II study.
BACKGROUND:The performance of current serologic tests for diagnosing chronic Chagas disease (CD) is highly variable. The search for new diagnostic markers has been a constant challenge for improving accuracy and reducing the number of inconclusive results. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:Here, four c...
