Data on the Relationships of Signal-To-Cutoff Ratios of Elecsys HIV Antigen/Antibody and Elecsys Syphilis Assays to Subsequent Confirmatory Testing at an Academic Medical Center

Immunoassays are widely used as screening tests for HIV and syphilis in clinical, public health, and research settings. For syphilis, immunoassays are used in 'reverse syphilis algorithms' that start with treponemal tests such as syphilis IgG or syphilis total antibodies for the initial sc...
