For BAI, the best
cutoff point to discriminate MetS in male quilombolas was higher than the 25% defining obesity (56), but lower than the 27.1% discriminating MetS in the rural Chinese population (13).
The ROC curve for GCS of less than 9 demonstrated that the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.8164, and the
cutoff point (BIS value) corresponding to the maximum sensitivity (0.91) and specificity (0.63) was 60.2 (Fig 2).
According to the veteran educationist, the BECE basically determines how many students qualify to enter second cycle institutions, but, since there is no
cutoff point for students who benefit from the Free Senior High School (SHS) and get admitted into these schools, it would not be out of place for the GES to scrap the BECE.

However, these results reinforce the role of eosinophils in severe asthma disease biology and the importance of defining the right blood eosinophil

ROC analysis suggested that the optimum SS
cutoff point was 0.75 with a sensitivity of 86.7% and specificity of 92.3% for discriminating AIG patients with autonomic nerve dysfunction from patients with normal autonomic nerve function [area under the curve (AUC): 88.3, positive predictive value (PPV): 97.5% and negative predictive value (NPV): 66.6%; 95% confidence interval (CI), 88.4-99.7].
Our previous cross-sectional study proposed an HbA1c
cutoff point of 6.3% to diagnose diabetes and 5.9% to diagnose prediabetes in Chinese adults [10].
Based on
cutoff point, sensitivity, and specificity results, the preferred anthropometric indicator for predicting hypertension for boys was WC and BMI, followed by WHtR.
Initially the hampers were intended for children doing Standard Seven and below, but because the turn-out was not that much compared to last year, every child including those above the
cutoff point ended up benefiting from the benevolent gesture.
