Figure 3.

ROC curve analysis of the DAS28 at week 22 (plotting the 1-specificity versus the sensitivity). Also the accuracy, PPV and NPV are plotted. PPV, positive predictive value (predictive value to give a dose increase as a measure of insufficient response); NPV, negative predictive value (predictive value to continue on the current dose as a measure of good response).
