Fig. 2 The probability of epileptic seizures is estimated by means of a nomogram describing how pre-test probability relates to post-test probability given the LR for TB. When in doubt between the diagnosis of epileptic seizure and that of syncope, for instance given a pre-test probability of seizures of 50%, the presence of TB greatly increases the chance that the patient had an epileptic seizure (continuous line) (pLR=8.167).
