Specificity is the probability that a test result will be negative in patients without disease (answer 1). The sensitivity is the probability that a test result will be positive in patients with disease (answer 4). The positive predictive value is the number of patients with a positive test result who are correctly diagnosed and the negative predictive value is the opposite of this (answers 5 and 2, respectively). The referenced review article by Kocher describes many of the statistical tools useful for practicing orthopaedic surgeons.
