Abstract
We refer to a recent letter to the editor by Hughes and show that, despite existing similarities between Youden's index and the log-likelihood ratio positive, important differences between these two measures remain to exist which can play an important difference in clinical practice.Keywords: Taylor series approxima-tion; Youden’s index; diagnostic testing; likelihood ratio positive
