Furthermore, a combination of CD4 and suPAR gave better sensitivity and specificity compared to CD4≤350 or ≤200 cells/μl alone.
6 Various studies have demonstrated that serum lipase levels have better sensitivity and specificity compared to serum amylase levels in diagnosing pancreatitis.
These studies introduced new variables that had better sensitivity and specificity compared to CH and CRF in the detection of keratoconus [ 19– 22], like the hysteresis loop area [ 22], which was similar by definition to AUDA.
A new type of real time reverse transcription (RT -PCR-based miRT -PCR-basedRT -PCR-basedeveloped that have better sensitivity and specificity comiRNAd to beassaysd microarray-based technologies [ 17].
The results show that V-Phaser 2 substantially reduces the run-time and memory usage compared to V-Phaser and QuRe; V-Phaser 2 has comparable sensitivity with V-Phaser, where both are better than QuRe; V-Phaser 2 has comparable specificity compared to QuRe, where both are better than V-Phaser.
Piezoresistive SU-8 cantilever sensors with Au immobilization layer depict better performance metrics (electrical sensitivity and specificity) compared to sensors with SU-8 as the immobilization surface.
In the current study, we analysed four genes, previously validated (Eijsink et al, 2011; Eijsink et al, 2012), of which some showed already better specificity compared with cytology without losing sensitivity to detect CIN3+.
For ipsilateral lesions, MRI had a trend towards better sensitivity compared to PEM while PEM trended to have greater specificity compared to MRI, however neither reached statistical significance (p=0.074 and p=0.096 respectively).
In comparison, the magnitude of the true IDI was larger (IDI = 0.30) when T2 had higher sensitivity and specificity, compared to when T2 had either higher sensitivity (IDI = 0.25) or better specificity (IDI = 0.28).
Overall the administrative datasets performed better for validity than the self-reported data for confirmed cases of stillbirth, with the PDC showing 90%% sensitivity and 96%% specificity compared to the self-reported stillbirth data: 100 % sensitivity but only 30%% specificity.
