Meta-analysis of test accuracy studies: an exploratory method for investigating the impact of missing thresholds
Riley, Richard D.; Ensor, Joie; Takwoingi, Yemisi; Kirkham, Amanda; Morris, R Katie; Noordzij, J Pieter; Deeks, Jonathan J (BioMed Central Ltd., 2015)Background Primary studies examining the accuracy of a continuous test evaluate its sensitivity and specificity at one or more thresholds.
