Table 4. Comparison of the diagnostic measurements for category 4 /5 lesions with M-NBI diagnosis according to the VS classification system between the non-biopsy group and the biopsy group.

Non-biopsy group (n = 32) Biopsy group (n = 67) P value
Accuracy (95 % CI) 88 % (71.0 – 96.5) 66 % (53.1 – 76.8) 0.02
Sensitivity (95 % CI) 95 % (77.2 – 99.9) 89 % (76.4 – 96.4) 0.39
Specificity (95 % CI) 70 % (34.8 – 93.3) 14 % (3.0 – 36.3) < 0.01
Positive predictive value (95 % CI) 88 % (67.6 – 97.3) 69 % (56.1 – 80.8) 0.09
Negative predictive value (95 % CI) 88 % (47.3 – 99.7) 38 % (8.5 – 75.5) 0.04

M-NBI, magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging; VS, vessel plus surface; CI, confidence interval.
