Figure Lengend Snippet: Quantitative comparison of LABScreen single antigen classes I and II (OLSAB1/2) between LS200 and FM3D: (a, c) are linear regression for all baseline MFI values obtained for classes I (a) and II (c) between LS200 and FM3D. Dot lines represents line of identity ( y = x ) and point lines depict thresholds (1000 MFI); (b, d) are the Bland–Altman representations of the difference between each measurement, depending on the mean (average) for each bead. The two vertical dot lines correspond to 1000 and 20,000 MFI. The two horizontal dot lines denote the 95% limits of agreement between the two platforms. For note, since baseline MFI obtained with OLSAB1/2 kits may be equal to zero for negative beads, all MFI under 1.0 were artificially increased to 1.0. (a) Regression line for OLSAB1. N = 26 patients' sera and 2522 beads. FM3D MFI ranged from 1.0 to 30,774 (mean = 3791, standard deviation = 7069, first quartile = 2.0, third quartile = 3153), whereas LS200 MFI ranged from 1.0 to 24,361 (mean = 3566, standard deviation = 6481, first quartile = 2.0, third quartile = 3015). Equation line: MFI (FM3D) = 1.09 × MFI (LS200) ( p < 0.0001; R 2 > 0.99). Spearman r s = 0.996, p < 0.0001. (b) Bland–Altman representation for OLSAB1: Difference between LS200 and FM3D MFI, depending on MFI average of both platforms. Ninety‐five percent limits of agreement were −1314; 1766 (horizontal dotted lines). Above 20,000 MFI (vertical dotted lines), the systematic bias depending on MFI increased (21.9 for MFI < 10,000, 489 for 10,000 < MFI < 20,000, 2620 for MFI > 20,000). (c) Regression line for OLSAB2. N = 25 patients' sera and 2375 beads. FM3D MFI ranged from 1.0 to 27,973 (mean = 3159, standard deviation = 6197, first quartile = 6.0, third quartile = 2903), whereas LS200 MFI ranged from 1.0 to 23,990 (mean = 2979, standard deviation = 5765, first quartile = 1.0, third quartile = 2748). Equation line: MFI (FM3D) = 1.07 × MFI (LS200) ( p < 0.0001; R 2 > 0.99). Spearman r s = 0.993, p < 0.0001. (d) Bland–Altman representation for OLSAB2: Difference between LS200 and FM3D MFI depending on MFI average of both platforms. Ninety‐five percent limits of agreement were −892.5; 1251 (horizontal dotted lines). Above 20,000 MFI (vertical dot lines), the systematic bias depending on MFI increased (46.5 for MFI < 10,000, 652 for 10,000 < MFI < 20,000, 2115 for MFI > 20,000).
