Although nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) has a high specificity when tested in body fluids, it lacks adequate sensitivity in cases of meningitis and pleuritis [ 9].
For these reasons, the development of new alternative analytical technology for determination of ROS in plasma with adequate sensitivity, improved simplicity, and lower cost was seriously needed.
Accordingly, the development of a new alternative analytical method for the determination of LND in plasma with adequate sensitivity, improved simplicity, lower cost, and higher throughput is urgently needed.

We have used a statistical method that has been shown to have high specificity and adequate sensitivity in identifying important chemicals in regression models in simulation studies (Carrico et al. 2014).
Blink reflex study is routinely used to diagnose TN, which is a main study for detecting large-myelinated (Aβ) nerve fiber function [29], however, it did not show an adequate sensitivity in detecting trigeminal nerve dysfunction in classical TN.
The emotional pictures task did not demonstrate adequate sensitivity in a priori target regions, only in the a posteriori defined inferior temporal region.
Selenium cells had to be relatively large in order to display adequate sensitivity to light, and eventually they were abandoned in favour of instruments of the variable resistance, or photoconductive, type.
Human blood tests in clinical diagnostics often require cell-free samples in order to provide adequate sensitivity of measurements.
Meanwhile, the IASP study has collected data on the validity of this instrument in a SUD population showing adequate sensitivity and specificity even in patients still actively using substances [ 37].
