RT Journal A1 Light RW T1 BEing sensitive to the specifics of predictive values in the diagnosis of tuberculous pleuritis JF Archives of Internal Medicine JO Archives of Internal Medicine YR 1999 FD June 28 VO 159 IS 12 SP 1370 OP 1370 DO UL http://dx.doi.org/ AB I would like to thank Drs Nardino and Atlas for their comments regarding my recent editorial. They are correct when they state that I mistakenly used the term "specificity" rather than "positive predictive value."
