Kaplan-Meier curves showing the survival time for antibodies detected by tELISA (red) and α-Gal-ELISA (green) for patients from Group 1 (dashed lines) and Group 4 (solid lines). Median negativization values are indicated for each data set. Censored cases are indicated with dots. Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) analyses were performed to compare median time of negative seroconversion.
