Dear colegues of the R epidemiologic list,

I was looking for some functions to analyse some data about diagnostic test
and unfortunately there was not somethig that I expected. However I found a
function called SensSpec at epibasix library.

What came to my attention is that the example given by the author give a
sensitivity of about 96% and a confidence interval o 88 to 104?!??! How come
a result that should vary between 0 and 100 could have a confidence interval
of 104? There is any way to propose a correction? Also this functions does
not give predictive values, likelihood ratios, dor, and AUC.

Does anyone have or know about any functions to work on diagnostic tests?

Best regards,
Pedro Emmanuel A. A. do Brasil
