Table 2

Comparison of AUC for menstrual CA-125, for midcycle CA-125 and for the difference and ratio between the two phases.

CA-AUC95% CI

Mid0.890.78–0.96
0.960.87–0.99
0.860.74–0.94

AUC: Area Under the Curve; 95% CI: confidence interval of 95%; -125 difference between menstrual and midcycle phases; -125 ratio between menstrual and midcycle phases.
