摘要
The discriminatory ability of five laboratory tests, and that of a linear combination of them, with respect to different liver diseases, was studied in a graphic representation of the percentage of misclassified patients for varying parameter values. Galactose tolerance was the best individual discriminator between cirrhosis and non-cirrhosis. The same, and alkaline phosphatases were most effective in the differentiation of jaundice. The parameter formed by combining these tests and bilirubin, thymol turbidity and GPT, markedly improved the accuracy of the laboratory diagnosis. © 1969 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
