Comparison of measured parameters between healthy group and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) group

Parameter	Threshold	Sensitivity	Specificity	ACC	PPV	NPV	LR(+)	LR(–)
Cathelicidin (pg/ml)	1522.0	0.571	0.881	0.741	0.800	0.712	4.816	0.486
HBD 2 (ng/ml)	1.266	0.694	0.847	0.778	0.791	0.769	4.549	0.361

BCC – basal cell carcinoma, HBD – human β-defensin, ACC – accuracy, PPV and NPV – positive and negative predictive values, LR(+) and LR(–) – positive and negative likelihood ratio
