Description

This function calculate the performance, based on Bayes theorem, of a clinical test. The input is based on a 2x2 matrix (true positive, false positives; false negative, true negatives).
The Outputs are:
- Prevalence of disease
- Test Sensibility
- Test Specificity
- False positive and negative proportions
- Youden's Index
- Matthews Correlation Coefficient
- Number needed to Diagnose (NDD)
- Discriminant Power
- Test Accuracy
- Mis-classification Rate
- Positive predictivity
- Negative predictivity
- Positive Likelihood Ratio
- Negative Likelihood Ratio
- Test bias
- Diagnostic odds ratio
- Error odds ratio
