Urine dipstick leukocyte esterase testing in a group of 1000women, 300 (30%) of whom have a UTI (as determined by a gold-standard test such as urine culture). The dipstick test has sensitivity of 71% and specificity of 85%.
How many women with a UTI would have a negative result?
Tp( True positive) = 300
Sn = tp/tp+fn 71/100= 300/300+fn fn= 122
Fn + tp= 422 , tn+ fp= 1000-422= 678
Sp= tn/tn+fp. 85/100= tn/678 = 576

A new screening test for Type II diabetes was evaluated/validated based on a group of 800 persons, 20% of whom were known to have the disease based on a previous diagnosis. Validation results included the following: (1) the screening test accurately identified 140 persons as having the disease; (2) the screening test accurately ruled out 500 persons as NOT having the disease. (A) What is the estimated sensitivity of the new screening test? (B) What is the estimated specificity of...
Suppose that your company has just developed a new screening test for a disease and you are in charge of testing its validity and feasibility. You decide to evaluate the test on 1000 individuals and compare the results of the new test to the gold standard. You know the prevalence of disease in your population is 30%. The screening test gave a positive result for 292 individuals. Two hundred eighty-five (285) of these individuals actually had the disease on the...
