Table 2.

Sensitivity and specificity of Fisher interpretation function

Calculation results
Uninfected cases Infected cases
Uninfected group (N = 10) 10 0
Infected group (N = 40) 6 34
sensitivity 85.0% (34/40)
specificity 100% (34/34)

Note: 40 positive and 10 negative cases were included. According to the function formula, 10 negative cases were all negative, 34 of 40 positive samples were positive, and 6 were negative. The sensitivity and specificity of this formula was 85.0 and 100%, respectively
