A research paper indicates that 70% (n= 213) in the resolved group were correctly predicted and therefore n=91in the resolved group were not.Similarly 65% (n= 166) in the treated and persisted group were correctly predicted and therefore n= 90 in the treated and persisted group were not.Use these values and give a contextual explanation of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value.
