Table 3 Combined measures of overall case management success
From: Composite endpoints for malaria case-management: not simplifying the picture?
Measures of overall success | Formula |
|---|---|
Youdens index | PMR+NMR - 1 |
Likelihood ratio for positives (LR+) | PMR/[1 – NMR] |
Likelihood ratio for negatives (LR-) | [1 – PMR]/NMR |
Diagnostic Odds ratio | [ PMR/(1-PMR)]/[(1-NMR)/NMR] |
