We found substantial heterogeneity between studies when calculating the pooled sensitivity for almost every threshold analysed in the studies evaluating OC-Sensor?(Table 3).Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was higher than 0.1,suggesting an absence of threshold effect in all cases.The scarce number of studies limited our intent to determine the existence of publication bias using funnel plots.However,when plotting each study’s diagnostic odds ratio(dOR)in a logarithmic scale against its sample size,we did not identify any trends towards asymmetry around the axis traced by the pooled dOR value for any analysed threshold,which suggests the absence of this possibility(Figure 5).
