pyrazinoic acid and Sensitivity and Specificity

pyrazinoic acid has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 4 studies

pyrazinoic acid: active metabolite of pyrazinamide; structure
pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid : The parent compound of the class of pyrazinecarboxylic acids, that is pyrazine bearing a single carboxy substituent. The active metabolite of the antitubercular drug pyrazinamide.

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)
