Point Estimates of Sensitivity and Specificity of the SMS in the Three Tested Cohorts

Study (no. in cohort) Set at Sensitivity of 95% Set at Youden Optima
Sensitivity Specificity Sensitivity Specificity
Smith et al [27] (94) 0.959 0.356 0.837 0.933
Wynn et al [23] (84) 0.946 0.717 0.865 0.870
Cernada et al [29] (36) 0.941 0.737 1 0.737
Overall mean 0.949 0.603 0.901 0.847

Two methods for choosing an optimal point were used, a minimum sensitivity (95%) and the Youden joint maximization.
