Sensitivities, specificities, and AUC of PAX1 and SOX1 methylation in detecting low (n=27) and high (n=14) TNM stages

Detection modality	Sensitivity %	Specificity %	AUC	95% CI	P-value*
PAX1	0.714	0.704	0.759	0.588–0.930	0.007
SOX1	0.714	0.630	0.692	0.515–0.869	0.046

Note:

^*Calculated by χ² test.

Abbreviations: AUC, areas under the curve; PAX1, paired boxed gene 1; SOX1, sex-determining region Y-related high-mobility group box 1.
