Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A new test was compared with the reference standard in a study (see the 2 × 2 table). Find the positive predictive value PPV as a percentage. Round to one decimal place.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A new test was compared with the reference standard in a study (see the 2 × 2 table). Find the specificity Sp as a percentage. Round to one decimal place.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A case-control study compares 240 patients with a disease (cases) and 130 people without it (controls). The table shows how many in each group were exposed to a risk factor. Find the odds ratio OR for the exposure. Round to two decimal places.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A case-control study compares 190 patients with a disease (cases) and 780 people without it (controls). The table shows how many in each group were exposed to a risk factor. Find the odds ratio OR for the exposure. Round to two decimal places.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient has a pre-test probability of 15% for a disease. A test with sensitivity 62% and specificity 87% comes back negative. Find the post-test probability p′ of the disease as a percentage. Round to one decimal place.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient has a pre-test probability of 5% for a disease. A test with sensitivity 61% and specificity 87% comes back positive. Find the post-test probability p′ of the disease as a percentage. Round to one decimal place.
