Abstract:

Background: In the clinical examination of patients with low back pain (LBP), musculoskeletal physiotherapists routinely assess lumbar spinal segmental motion by performing physical examination procedures such as observation of active range of motion and palpation of intervertebral motion. The validity of manual assessment of segmental motion, however, has not been adequately investigated. Methods: In this pragmatic, multi-centre, criterion-related validity study, 138 consecutive patients with LBP were recruited and examined by physiotherapists with postgraduate training in musculoskeletal m

Objective: to evaluate the diagnostic accuracies of well-known sonographic markers of adenomyosis and of two innovative ones, the question mark sign and the transvaginal ultrasound uterine tenderness. Methods: 78 patients scheduled for hysterectomy for uterine benign diseases underwent preoperative transvaginal ultrasonography to evaluate the criteria of sonographic diagnosis of adenomyosis as reported by consensus statement MUSA. Adenomyosis was diagnosed in presence of two or more of the following parameters: asymmetry of the uterine walls, hyperechoic striae, anechoic myometrial cysts, hyp

Abstract:

Endometriosis is a disease that affects approximately 10% of individuals assigned female at birth. Endometriosis is a chronic oestrogen-dependent and -promoted inflammatory response secondary to ectopic yet functional endometrial-like cell growth outside the uterine cavity. It is generally thought to be a pain-causing disease and has a strong link between endometriosis and infertility. Imaging has emerged as the most optimistic non-invasive and non-surgical tool to diagnose endometriosis. In many centres in Australia and around the world, current evidence-based ultrasound techniques for end

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine the diagnostic and classification accuracy of placement decisions for Mildly/Educably Mentally Handicapped (M/EMH) children in British Columbia. Evidence from the United States suggests that classification decisions are often made on the basis of idiosyncratic student behaviours and the subjective opinions of educators, not on the basis of empirical evidence. Although Canadian special education practice is often based on that of the U.S., no major study of the accuracy of diagnosis and classification has been undertaken in this country. Based on a revi

Background A variety of tests are used in clinical practice to help the diagnostic process and so improve patient care. Many aspects of stroke management depend on accurate and rapid diagnosis. Brain imaging, including CT or MRI, is necessary to identify the location and extent of the cerebral lesion, and to determine the pathological type of stroke and its likely cause. Current treatments - such as thrombolysis - for ischaemic stroke have increased the need for clear evidence on which imaging test is optimal for diagnosis in the acute phase of stroke.

Abstract:

The number of people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is expected to increase rapidly in the coming years. Diagnosing the disease early is key to giving those affected a chance to maintain a higher quality of life. One of the most common ways to detect AD is to visually inspect scans of the patients’ brains. Computer aided diagnosis (CAD)can assist a physician’s judgement when searching for the disease in the brain scans, making the assessment more accurate. Progress has been made in this field throughout the years. This paper compares the machine learning classification accuracy of AD

Abstract:

Diagnostic classification models used in conjunction with diagnostic assessments are to classify individual respondents into masters and nonmasters at the level of attributes. Previous researchers (Madison & Bradshaw, 2015) recommended items on the assessment should measure all patterns of attribute combinations to ensure classification accuracy, but in practice, certain attributes may not be measured by themselves. Moreover, the model estimation requires large sample size, but in reality, there could be unanswered items in the data. Therefore, the current study sought to provide suggestions o

Background: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a clinical construct reputed to represent an intermediate stage on a continuum between normal aging and cognitive decline. Conceptual and prognostic ambiguity can lead to significant diagnostic challenges and there is a need for accurate screening tests which can assist clinicians with decision-making. A diagnosis of MCI is also associated with considerable uncertainty for patients who may be adjusting to cognitive difficulties along with an increased risk of developing dementia.

Conjunctivitis is the most common cause of red eye and one of the most frequent causes of visits to clinicians. There is significant controversy on the diagnosis and treatment of the disease and the use of ophthalmic antibiotics.

Subsequently, the diagnosis of bacterial conjunctivitis is higher than it should be resulting in overuse of antibiotics.

Abstract:

This thesis considers Nonparametric Predictive Inference (NPI) for ordinal data and accuracy of diagnostic tests. We introduce NPI for ordinal data, which are categor- ical data with an ordering of the categories. Such data occur in many application areas, for example medical and social studies. The method uses a latent variable representation of the observations and categories on the real line. Lower and upper probabilities for events involving the next observation are presented, with specic attention to comparison of multiple groups of ordinal data. We introduce NPI for accuracy of diagnosti

Abstract:

Within the health sciences, action research is a methodology well suited to the goal of collaboratively improving practice. As the Royal College of Radiology recommends the use of published clinical trials as guides for achieving higher standards of accuracy, it is important for radiologists to reflect deeply on the results from diagnostic accuracy studies. When the results of the gold standard (or reference standard) are used to confirm a particular diagnosis or disease by comparing the diagnostic accuracy to a newer or index test, this is referred to as diagnostic accuracy research. In the r

Abstract:

Syftet med den aktuella studien var att undersöka tillförlitligheten av apikal palpation och perkussion vid diagnostik av symtomatisk apikal parodontit och asymptomatisk apikal parodontit på icke rotfyllda tänder.Femton patienter undersöktes; åtta patienter med symtomatisk apikal parodontit och sju patienter med asymptomatisk apikal parodontit. Patienterna rekryterades från tre kliniker i södra Sverige. Först besvarade patienterna frågor om aktuellt läkemedelsintag och graderade sin smärta på en Visuell Analog Skala. Observatören utförde de två diagnostiska testerna på testtanden, kontrolltand
