Contingency table for LAMP-tested BD SurePath clinical samples identified using both FAM bands and LFS readout
| LAMP | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 24 total samples | 10 positive | 14 negative | |
| PCR | 15 positive | 9 TP | 6 FN |
| 9 negative | 1 FP | 8 TN | |
The LAMP-tested patient samples are analyzed using a 2 × 2 contingency table. The test compares PCR (gold standard assay) to LAMP (experimental assay). PCR results and analysis are located in ESM 1. PCR-positive samples are samples quantified as having a concentration higher than 72.44 copies/μl and the opposite is true for PCR-negative samples. LAMP-positive samples are calculated as a sample with 5 LP results. There are a total of 9 true positive (TP), 8 true negative (TN), 6 false negative (FN), and 1 false positive (FP) samples
