Table 4 Differences in the AUC of the ROC curves for the diagnosis of BOTs with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) and p-values. Pairwise ROC curve comparisons were calculated for the BOTs, SBOT and MBOT group. The method described by DeLong et al. was used to calculate the difference between two AUCs [21]
