Acute and convalescent serum were tested by Leptospira microscopic agglutination test (MAT) and acute plasma by lfb1 polymerase chain reaction. A \u22654-fold rise in antibody titer, or a single reciprocal titer \u2265800, or Leptospira PCR positive defined confirmed leptospirosis.

Participants with leptospirosis had greater odds of headache (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.20, P &amp;lt; .001), rash (aOR 1.45, P &amp;lt; .001), conjunctivitis (aOR 3.33, P &amp;lt; .001), and jaundice (aOR 1.75, P &amp;lt; .001); and had greater odds of being older (aOR 1.02 per year, P &amp;lt; .001), working in rice fields (aOR 6.24, P &amp;lt; .001), drinking river water (aOR 5.11, P = .001).
