INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS Negative: Only one colored band appears on the control (C) region. No apparent band on the test (T) region. Positive: in addition to a pink colored control (C) band, a distinct pink colored band will also appear in the test (T) region. Invalid: A total absen...
However, as some men may still request a PSA test from their GP/FD, patient information as well as clear guidance and support to GPs/FDs are needed, including appropriate skills training to facilitate effective counselling and informed decision-making, and the use of risk calculators to inform ...
AR<10% was abnormal. [Interpretation of the results Indentified] Acrosin Integrity (AI): fluorescent staining in more than half of sperm head is brighter and uniform; acrosin reaction (AR): fluorescence strap appears in equatorial zone or without fluorescein stain in acrosin zone; acrosin abn...
as it has been reported for total and free prostate specific antigen (tPSA, fPSA) measurements, the surveillance of the analytical performances in standard quality control programs is not enough and further steps should be moved to pursue the appropriate interpretation of the test results [3, 4]...
This slows the flow of reagents and lead to high background, making the interpretation of results difficult. 2. Optimal assay performance requires strict adherence to the assay procedure described in this insert. Deviations may lead to aberrant results. 3 As with any tests, the Test should not...

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS ¾ Negative: Only one colored band appears on the control region. No apparent band on the test region. ¾ Positive: In addition to a pink colored control band, a distinct pink colored band will also appear in the test region. If the test band is equal to or...
In order to ease the interpretation of the results of the model, we represented its sensitivity and specificity profile plot (Supplementary Fig.S6). Using this profile plot we may select a sensitivity (for example 90%), obtaining a specificity of 58%. ...
