  1. *Serological status was categorized into three groups as followed: 1) Always seronegative, MFI value < 200 at each visit; 2) Seroconversion, defined by two conditions: (i) an MFI value < 200 in the first and > 200 in any subsequent sample, and (ii) at least a two-fold increase of the previous serum value; and 3) Persistent seropositivity, with MFI value > 200 in all follow-up samples.
