摘要

Abstract

<正> This paper discusses how the positive and negative predictive values vary withcontrary variations of sensitivity and specificity at a certain disease prevalence.Let thesensitiviy be Se and the specificity be Sp at the initial cutoff point

correspondingly Se’and Sp’ at a new cutoff point:A=Se’/Se:B-（1-Sp’）/（1-Sp）:C=Sp’/Sp;D=（I-Se’）/（I-Se）.Moving the cutoff point from the initial point to the new point

if the contrary variationsof the sensitivity and specificity satisfy the inequality A>B

then the positive predictivevalue increases

otherwise it decreases or remains unchanged.If the variations satisfy theinequality C>D

then the negative prcdictive value increases

otherwise it decreasses or re-mains unchanged.
