From: Field evaluation of a Pan-Lassa rapid diagnostic test during the 2018 Nigerian Lassa fever outbreak
Demographics of the 2018 cohort of suspected Lassa fever cases presenting to Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital classified by Lassa quantitative polymerase chain reaction results. Samples from subjects were classified as positive, equivocal or negative on the Altona 1.0 qPCR (Panel A) or the Nikisons qPCR (Panel B). Case fatality rates of subjects by qPCR results are compared. Aspartate aminotransferase levels and presence of LASV sequences in samples from subjects are also compared.
