Factors associated with positive urinary HAET were analysed using univariable and multivariable models. Among 346 patients, histoplasmosis was diagnosed in 43 (12%); 16 (37%) were immunocompromised and 14 (33%) had disseminated disease. Urinary HAET was positive in eight patients (19%), with antigen levels from 0.3 to &gt;\u200915\u2009ng\/mL. Sensitivity and specificity were 19% and 100%, respectively; positive and negative predictive values were 100% and 90%. Sensitivity increased to 45% in immunocompromised patients with multiorgan involvement, and immunocompromised status independently predicted HAET positivity (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.008).
