Greetings List Members: I want to clarify with definitions to what the OFA indicated they have found in studying litters (age 4-6 months of age) of goldens, labs, GS and Rotts.
Sensitivity= 80% reported A rate that indicates the percent of dogs with the disease who are CORRECTLY classified as having the disease. Specificity= 97% reported A rate that indicates the percent of dogs WITHOUT disease who are correctly classified as not having the disease Predictive Value: High Sensitivity + High Specificity Rates = Good Predictive Value Take care, Kathy Yonkers Stuarthome CKCS -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . ========================================================"Magic Commands": to stop receiving mail for awhile, click here and send the email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20NOMAIL to start it up gain click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20MAIL E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] for assistance.
