Grades 1–3 are positive (positive predictive value, 72.5%) and grades 4 and 5 negative (negative predictive value, 76.3%) for LN metastasis based on highest Youden index. Sensitivity is 50.0%, specificity is 72.5%, and accuracy is 65.5%.

Grades 1 and 2 are positive (positive predictive value, 81.3%) and grades 3–5 negative (negative predictive value, 88.1%) for LN metastasis based on highest Youden index. Sensitivity is 72.2%, specificity is 92.5%, and accuracy is 86.2%.
