    <p>Accuracy matrix for the number of antigens used in the multiplex panel from 1 to 11 (selected <i>M</i>.<i>tb</i>. antigens), as analyzed by the Optimized Decision Tree algorithm. SN = Sensitivity, PPV = Positive Predictive value, NPV = Negative Predictive Value, SP = Specificity, TE = Test Efficiency, and MCC = Mathew Correlation Coefficient.</p

    <p>Results in two combined categories of TB patients (AFB<sup>+</sup>/Culture<sup>+</sup> & AFB<sup>-</sup>/Culture<sup>+</sup>) for sensitivity, positive and negative predictive values, test efficiency (TE) and Matthew Correlation Coefficient (MCC), and test sensitivity in individual categories of TB patients (AFB<sup>+</sup>/Culture<sup>+</sup>, AFB<sup>-</sup>/Culture<sup>+</sup>, AFB<sup>-</sup>/Culture<sup>-</sup>), and test specificity (COPD patients and healthy group). Values shown are percentages.</p
