In our hands, use of the new EO criteria for diagnosis of CM increases the sensitivity and maintains the specificity of decision making, and therefore should be adopted in CM management practice.
Sensitivity, specificity and decision limits were calculated from non-parametric density estimations.
They achieved 61% sensitivity and 76% specificity (using decision trees) and found peaks at 5.8 and 11.7 kDa elevated in HCC.
To increase, both sensitivity and specificity, a decision tree analysis was applied in the present study, which revealed a first node of GS-Total-change.
The explanation of this local specificity of decision emergence can be based on background activity in the network due to noise and previous specific activations which accumulates most efficiently in DNA cores.
While decision-making processes of land managers drive land-use change and affect the provision of ecosystems services, there is no concrete understanding of whether gender specificity in decision-making influences the multifunctionality of landscapes.
But novels thrive on specificity, and this decision has the effect of dehumanizing his characters to the reader — a subtle but crucial distinction.
The global studies lack the specificity to inform decision making, while the local studies do little to clarify potential changes over large regions (major river basins, states, or groups of states), a scale often important in the development of water policy.
Although the study reported a high reliability, the number of events was too low to adequately assess the sensitivity and specificity of the decision instrument.
We carry out a simulation study to investigate the sensitivity and specificity of the decision rules we propose, and we illustrate our approach in a case study of congenital anomalies in England.
Sensitivity and specificity of the decision instrument did not depend on event type, pathogen type, or WHO region of occurrence because no strong evidence of an association between concordance and these factors was found.
