Sentence examples for specificity of interpretation from inspiring English sources

In our study, we have provided a unique alternative approach for improving specificity of interpretation of measurements of fractionated plasma metanephrines.

By adjusting the metanephrine score for age, we have shown that it may be possible to improve specificity of interpretation of fractionated plasma metanephrines, with no loss of sensitivity in detection of sporadic pheochromocytoma, and potential savings in imaging expenditures.

Our objective was to determine whether an adjustment of fractionated plasma metanephrines for age may improve the specificity of interpretation of these measurements when biochemically excluding sporadic pheochromocytoma, and thus result in costs savings in confirmatory imaging studies.

Sensitivity and specificity of image interpretation were calculated along with their 95%% confidence intervals by pooling all of the interpretations performed in the assessment phase of the study.

The specificity of the traditional interpretation of fractionated plasma metanephrine measurements was 83.7% (113/135 patients, 95% CI, 76.6%, 89.0%) and the specificity of the age-adjusted plasma metanephrine score was 97.0% (131/135 patients, 95% CI, 92.6%, 98.8%).

The questionable reliability and low sensitivity and specificity call for caution of interpretation and further evaluation of the usefulness of this variable.
