Pseudogold standard was considered positive (mucinous) if: Mucinous histology and/or positive mucin staining and/or biochemical > 192 ng/dL and/or glucose < 50 mg/dL, whereas it was considered negative (non-mucinous) if: Non-mucinous histology, negative mucin staining, biochemical < 192 ng/dL and glucose > 50 mg/dL. IPMN: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm; MCN: Mucinous cystic neoplasm; CEA: Carcinoembryonic antigen.
