- * Only quartiles and key cut points are displayed in the table.
- The cut point is defined as different total raw scores on the ABSST ranging from 0 to 24.
-
1 The odds ratio was defined as those MS patients more likely to be referred to a urologist than not. Values > 1 indicated that the patient is that many more times (for example 8.28) likely to be referred to a urologist.
-
2 The sensitivity refers to those results that are true results (e.g. would refer to a urologist). Minimum criteria was ≥0.75.
-
3 Specificity refers to those results that are truly negative results (e.g. would NOT refer to a urologist). Minimum criteria was ≥0.80.
-
4 PPV refers to proportion of positive test results that are true positives (e.g. proportion of patients who would warrant a referral to a urologist). Values closer to 100% approximates higher proportion of true positives.
-
5 NPV refers to the proportion of negative results that are true negatives (e.g. the proportion of patients who would NOT warrant a referral to a urologist are not referred). Values closer to 100% approximates higher proportions of true negatives.
-
6 The percent of classified patients is the percentage of patients who are warranted to be referred to a urologist or not.
-
7 The c-statistic is the area under the ROC curve. Values closer to 1 approximate a perfect model.
