==Footnotes added==
I added more footnotes from a reference, as requested by the tag [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pre-_and_post-test_probability&action=historysubmit&diff=446947036&oldid=446946032]. The article surely needs more referenced entries, but I don't think it lacks specifically in in-line citations of existing references.

== Disadvantage of Likelihood ratios ==
 
I deleted the disadvantage of LR because it is possible to do a calculation of likelihood ratios for tests with continuous values or more than two outcomes which is similar to the calculation for dichotomous outcomes; a separate likelihood ratio is simply calculated for every level of test result and is called interval or stratum specific likelihood ratios.<ref>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1067/mem.2003.274 | author = Brown MD, Reeves MJ. | year = 2003 | title = Evidence-based emergency medicine/skills for evidence-based emergency care.
