All values reported at 95% confidence interval unless otherwise stated. ROC, receiver operating curve; No Obs, number of observations; AUC, area under receiver operating curve (ideally >0.6); SENS, Sensitivity; SPEC, specificity; pre-adjusted ODDS ratio + prior to division by 3, P value for odds ratio at 95% confidence interval; % RR-Ho, percentage risk ratio for null hypothesis (ideally <0.10), HPL, urinary hydroxyhemopyrroline-2-one.

Bold font for parameters for the combined imputed and non-imputed 15 biomarker set and the combined 21 biomarker set.

*Middle ear domain and catecholamine domain did not require imputation.
