Note: Data are expressed as mean (95% CI). Cutoff point, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were measured at maximum Youden index after standardization of disease prevalence to 50%; 95% CI for cutoff point and Youden index was estimated with bootstrapping method (5000 iterations, 978 seeds); 95% binomial exact CI for sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV was estimated by Delong's method.

Abbreviations: ABR, alpha/beta ratio; ATR, alpha/theta ratio; CI, confidence interval; NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value; TBR, theta/beta ratio.
