2 Figure 1 Geometric mean (±SEM) specific IgA titers adjusted to total IgA concentrations against a Helicobacter pylori membrane preparation (MP) and Helicobacter pylori flagellin, respectively, in fecal extracts (FEs) from Helicobacter pylori-infected subjects and seronegative controls. Asterisks denote a statistically significant (p<0.05) difference between subjects and controls.

3 Figure 2 Specific IgG and IgA antibody titers against MP in saliva specimens obtained from Helicobacter pylori-infected (closed symbols) subjects and seronegative (open symbols) controls. Subjects with titers <2 were arbitrarily assigned a titer of 1. Asterisks denote a statistically significant (p<0.05) titer difference; horizontal lines denote geometric means.

4 Figure 3 Decreases in specific anti-MP IgG titers in serum and anti-MP IgA titers/total IgA in stool (fecal extracts) 6 ± 1 weeks and 5 months after onset (day 0) of successful eradication therapy. Individual results for the nine different volunteers included in the follow-up studies are shown.
