Table 3.

Estimated measures of sensitivity (Sensit.), specificity per patient (Spec. P.), specificity per observation (Spec. O.) and timeliness for two different pairs of cut-points for our proposal and the threshold method

Method	Cut-point	Sensit.	Spec. P.	Spec. O.	Timeliness
Proposal	0.50	0.429	0.960	0.985	75
GALAD	0.74	0.464	0.960	0.968	163
Proposal	0.02	0.821	0.796	0.916	208
GALAD	$-$ 1.87	0.821	0.781	0.794	708

The first two have been matched by same specificity per patient. The last two are the optimums for the sum of sensitivity and specificity per patient
