To detect pironoma most a***urately, phys***ians ***uld use the lab***a***ry test that has the lowest prop***tion of false po***ive resu***s.Wh***h of the follow***g, if true, gives the most supp***t *** the re***m***ndation above?
(A) The a***ept*** treat***nt f*** pironoma does not h**e damag***g side effects.

(C) In treat***g pironoma patients, it is essential *** beg*** treat***nt as early as possible, s***ce even a week of delay can resu*** *** loss of ***fe.
(D) The prop***tion of ******nclusive test resu***s is equal f*** all lab***a***ry tests us*** *** detect pironoma.
(E) All lab***a***ry tests *** detect pironoma h**e the sa*** prop***tion of false ***gative resu***s.
