Ocular immunology and inflammation(2008)
摘要
Purpose: To delineate features of ocular sarcoidosis. Methods: Comparison of the old and new Japanese guidelines for diagnosing ocular sarcoidosis by review of the medical records of 100 sarcoidosis patients and 147 patients with non-sarcoidosis uveitis. Results: The overall diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for the old guidelines were 80.0% and 45.6%; sensitivity and specificity for the new guidelines were 84.0% and 83.0%. Positive and negative predictive values and the likelihood ratios for a positive and negative test result improved. The new guidelines achieved more than 80% specificity for all categories. Conclusion: The new guidelines allow easier distinction of ocular sarcoidosis.
