The presence of various BPDs may be one of the main reasons that no optimal cut-off value for CYFRA 21-1 expression in NSCLC has been determined previously. Introduction Lung cancer is a major cause of cancer-related mortality [1]. Despite the ongoing improvement and development of diagnostic...
The optimal cut-off values for DD overall and by machine, tooth surface, surface area, and tooth position were between 20 and 35 except that the optimal cut-offs were higher for furcation and crown margin surfaces, particularly in the posterior (optimal cut-offs 40–45). The accuracy of DD...
The tip-apex distance (TAD), and the calcar-referenced tip apex distance (CalTAD) are the radiographic parameters that most predict the risk of cut-out. The optimal CalTAD value has not yet been defined, but the optimal TAD value is reported as 25 mm or less. However, this cut-off ...
The NIC in the arterial phase had the highest diagnostic efficiency for cervical CLNM(AUC=0.822), and the optimal cut-off value was 0.36. The quantitative parameters of the dual-energy CT iodine map combined with the morphological signs had the highest diagnostic efficiency for cervical CLNM, ...
min) were divided into two groups according to the optimal cut-off point in the single-factor analysis (Table 3). We found that rADCmin (< 1.14 × 10–3 mm2/s) and peritumoral edema were independent risk factors for predicting high Ki-67 LI (> 9.5%) (Table ...
AimWe have recently determined the optimal cut-off of the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance for the diagnosis of insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in non-diabetic residents of Tehran, the capital of Iran. The aim of the present study is to establish the opt...
On the other hand, the two-factor model without correlated residual had no cross-loading items, with factor loadings ranging from 0.53 to 0.88, all above the cut-off value of 0.40. Furthermore, it explained 52.66% of the total variation in the sample. Hence, the two-factor model without ...
Keywords: Optimal cut-point, Censored failure time outcome, Youden index, Concordance probability, Point closest-to-(0,1) corner in the ROC plane Background The use of a continuous biomarker X in clinical practice often requires the definition of a cut-point c above (or below) whic...
(2005) to set the cut-off value, we considered the average predicted suitability on the occurrence data locations, coinciding with the stricter criterion, to simulate the worst-case scenario (Supplementary Material, Table S4). The resulting resistance surface values ranged from 0 to 1000, where ...
