st: RE: sensitivity and specificity with CI's

["Visintainer, Paul" <Paul.Visintainer@baystatehealth.org>]

You can use -diagt-, which provides CIs.  You can also compute the confidence intervals using -ci-, since sensitivity and specificity are proportions

Subject: st: sensitivity and specificity with CI's

Hi 

Is there a command for calculating sensitivity and specificity with CI's?  Have looked and found some but not sure of the quality and there don't appear to be CI's.

Thanks
Fran
