DTComPair version 1.2.6
(2024-09-24)
- The functions
acc.1test() and acc.paired()
now allow the user (via the argument method.ci)to choose
from a range of differnt types of confidence intervals.
DTComPair version 1.2.4
(2024-04-10)
- The functions
tab.paired() and tab.1test()
now allow for data where all subjects are either diseased or
nondiseased.
- A link to a package website and a hex sticker have been added.
DTComPair version 1.2.2
(2023-08-20)
- Functions that compare sensitivity/ specificity and predictive
values now return lists of vectors (instead of lists of lists).
Test 1 is consistently used as the reference test.
- In
pv.gs()and pv.wgs(), it is now
diff.ppv <- ppv.2-ppv.1 (instead of
diff.ppv <- abs(ppv.1-ppv.2)), and accordingly for
negative predictive values.
- Added a new function (
pv.prev()) to allow computation
of positive and negative predictive values for different theoretical
prevalences.
- Added a new function (
sesp.gen.mcnemar()) implementing
a generalized McNemar’s test for a joint comparison of sensitivity and
specificity.
- A redundant table in
man/dtcompair-package.rd was
deleted.
DTComPair version 1.2.0
(2023-04-20)
pv.rpv() now returns the full variance-covariance
matrix (Sigma).
ellipse.pv.rpv() generates the data to plot a joint
confidence region for rPPV and rNPV (depends on the ellipse
package) (as in Moskowitz and Pepe, 2006).
sesp.rel() calculates relative sensitivity and relative
specificity (with Wald CIs and p-value).
tpffpf.rel() calculates relative sensitivity (rTPF) and
relative ‘one minus specificity’ (rFPF) (with Wald CIs and p-value), but
it does not calculate their individual components (ie, TPFs and FPFs);
this function is meant to be used with paired screen-positive designs,
where only rTPF and rFPF are estimable form the data (see Cheng and
Macaluso, 1997 or Alonzo, Pepe, Moskowitz, 2002).
