Abstract:
Aims: This study analyzes decisive measures of efficiency of a test, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and QROC analysis combined with considerations about clinical, health-economic, and ethical aspects when choosing screening instruments. Methods: Analyses of Common Mental Disorders Screening Questionnaire (CMD-SQ) and its subscales SCL-SOM, Whiteley-7, SCL-ANX4, SCL-DEP6, SCL-8, plus combinations, for early detection of psychiatric disorders, are the subject for this analysis. In all, 46.4% of 2,414 new people with continuous sickness absence for more than eight weeks over one year in a well-defined Danish population of 120,000 inhabitants participated in the study. The study was performed as a two phase study. All 1,121 persons in Phase 1 filled in the CMD-SQ. In Phase 2, a random subsample of Phase 1 on 337, the people were further examined by a psychiatrist using SCAN as gold standard. The analyses were performed as weighted analyses on Phase 2. Results: From 17 analyses it was shown that the efficiency of a test, ROC analyses, and QROC analyses resulted in different optimal scales and cut-points. The random possibility of a positive test or negative test in the population is discussed for efficiency and ROC analyses. QROC analyses correct for this by the relative κ-values as decisive measures. However, QROC analyses may discard tests of value, all depending on the purpose of the test. Conclusions: In supplement to test statistics the capacity of services to follow up on screening, ethics, and health economy are issues that should be considered in deciding what rating scale and cut-point should be adopted.

Abstract:
Three standardized screening instruments—the Global Appraisal of Individual Needs Short Screener, the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview—Modified, and the Mental Health Screening Form (MHSF)—were compared to two shorter instruments, the 6-item Co-Occurring Disorders Screening Instrument for Mental Disorders (CODSI-MD) and the 3-item CODSI for Severe Mental Disorders (CODSI-SMD) for use with offenders in prison substance abuse treatment programs. Results showed that the CODSI screening instruments were comparable to the longer instruments in overall accuracy and that all of the instruments performed reasonably well. The CODSI instruments showed sufficient value to justify their use in prison substance abuse treatment programs and to warrant validation testing in other criminal justice populations and settings.

Abstract:
Objective.To compare the abilities of 3 validated screening instruments to predict the diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in patients with psoriasis.Methods.Prior to a rheumatologic evaluation, 213 participants in the Utah Psoriasis Initiative completed the Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening project (PEST), the Toronto Psoriatic Arthritis Screen (ToPAS), and the Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation (PASE). Previously established instrument cutoff scores were used to designate positive and negative classifications. Sensitivities and specificities were determined by comparing instrument classifications to the rheumatologist’s diagnosis. Phenotypic features and alternative diagnoses were compared between participants who screened positively and negatively on each instrument. Discrepancies between the rheumatologist’s examination findings and responses to specific instrument questions were compared.Results.The sensitivities of PEST, ToPAS, and PASE were 85%, 75%, and 68%, and the specificities were 45%, 55%, and 50%, respectively. The instruments were less sensitive in patients with lower disease activity, fewer PsA features, and shorter disease duration. The instruments did not consistently differentiate between PsA and other types of musculoskeletal disease. Discrepancies between examination findings and responses to instrument questions occurred more frequently with ToPAS than with PEST and PASE.Conclusion.Sensitivities and specificities for PEST, ToPAS, and PASE were lower than previously reported. This population included patients with PsA and other types of musculoskeletal disease and may represent those most likely to complete a screening instrument and follow through with a rheumatology referral. Further analyses may enable the development of more successful screening strategies for PsA in psoriasis patients with musculoskeletal complaints.

Abstract:
Objectives: To review brief cognitive screening instruments for routine clinical monitoring in electroconvulsive therapy. Methods: Brief cognitive screening instruments specifically developed for electroconvulsive therapy and commonly used brief generalised cognitive screening instruments were reviewed with relative advantages and disadvantages highlighted. Results: Several brief cognitive screening tests designed for use in electroconvulsive therapy have been found sensitive for monitoring electroconvulsive therapy–related cognitive side effects. The choice of a brief generalised cognitive screening instrument for use in an electroconvulsive therapy clinical context comes with several pertinent considerations. Conclusion: Electroconvulsive therapy is a highly effective treatment for pharmacoresistant and severe neuropsychiatric illness although cognitive side effects can be a barrier for treatment. Routine monitoring using brief cognitive screening instruments has advantages in busy clinical settings and can assist with optimising patient outcomes. More detailed neuropsychological assessment is recommended if the results from brief cognitive screening raise concerns.

Abstract:
Abstract Early detection of a high fall risk is important to start fall preventive interventions in time and to reduce fall risk among older people. Several fall risk screening instruments are available, however it is unclear which instrument is validated and most suitable for the primary care setting. This systematic review aims to identify the most suitable fall risk screening instrument(s) for the primary care setting (i.e. requires limited time, no expensive equipment and no additional space) with good prognostic ability to assess high fall risk among independently living older people. An extensive search was conducted in the databases PubMed, EMBASE CINAHL, Cochrane and PsycINFO. Twenty-six out of 2277 articles published between January 2000 and February 2019 were included. Six fall risk screening instruments were identified; TUG test, Gait Speed test, BBS, POMA, FR test, Fall History. Most articles reported AUCs ranging from 0.5-0.7 for all instruments. Sensitivity and specificity varied substantially across studies (e.g. TUG, sens.: 10-83.3%, spec.:37-96.6%). The results showed that none of the included screening instruments had sufficient (AUC>0.7) predictive performance (Šimundić, 2009). As suitability for the primary care setting prevails for now, Fall History appears to be the most suitable screening instrument. Compared to the other instruments, Fall History requires the least amount of time, no expensive equipment, no training, and no space (adjustments). Patient’s fall history together with a health care professional’s clinical judgment, might be a promising screening strategy for the primary care setting to identify high fall risk among older people.

Abstract:
Background:Timely diagnosis is essential for the optimal management of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Several instruments have been developed for screening PsA among patients with psoriasis. However, a delay in diagnosis is still frequently reported, possibly due to the lack of a wide use of these instruments.Objectives:We aimed to identify and compare the reported performance of these instruments with special emphasis on the PsA phenotypes.Methods:We conducted a systematic literature search on PubMed until 15 August 2020 using the keyword ‘psoriatic arthritis’. Two independent reviewers identified all studies published in English, that report on the validation, psychometric evaluation or use of an instrument for screening PsA. Any disagreements were resolved by the third investigator. Data on sensitivity, specificity, positive (PPV) and negative (NPV) predictive values were extracted or calculated for each instrument. Additionally, instruments were assessed for their performance in patients with different disease phenotypes.Results:A total of 10754 references were screened, and 42 were identified that reported on 15 different screening instruments. Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation (PASE), Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening Tool (PEST), Early Arthritis for Psoriatic Patients questionnaire (EARP) were the most commonly used instruments. There was important variability across studies regarding the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV of these instruments based on the cut-offs for positivity, setting, patient population and disease phenotypes (Table 1). Specificity was higher when patients with a previous diagnosis of other rheumatic diseases were excluded. Lower sensitivity was reported among patients with shorter disease duration and when patients with a prior diagnosis of PsA were excluded from the study, whereas higher sensitivity was reported among patients with prior NSAID use. Screening tools showed differences in sensitivity in different domains (Figure 1).Figure 1.Performance Among Patients with Each DomainConclusion:This systematic literature review revealed wide variability in the diagnostic estimates of currently available questionnaire-based screening instruments for identifying PsA among psoriasis patients, depending on study populations and disease phenotypes. There is an unmet need for a screening instrument with a better performance in all disease domains.Table 1.Diagnostic estimates of screening tools in different studiesInstrumentNumber of studiesSensitivity%Specificity%PPV%NPV%PASE1824-9138-9518-8813-96PEST1140 – 8537.2-98.623-9647.1-99.3EARP941-97.234-97.214-93.357.5-100TOPAS641-89.129.7-9025.7-91.868-81.6TOPAS-II444-95.880.5-9863.4-95.891-98PsA-Disk questionnaire187.246.458.678.5CONTEST270-76.556.5-9116-8968-95STRIPP191.593.379.697.5SiPAS179877390PASQ267-92.764-81.84383GEPARD277706680Swedish- Psoriasis Assessment Questionnaire163724585PAQ160622687.5SiPAT169699169A novel, short, and simple screening questionnaire186.971.35393.6PASE: Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation, PEST: Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening Tool, EARP: Early Arthritis for Psoriatic Patients questionnaire, TOPAS: Toronto Psoriatic Arthritis Screening Questionnaire, STRIPP: Screening Tool for Rheumatologic Investigation,SIPAS: Simple Psoriatic Arthritis Screening questionnaire, PASQ: Psoriasis and Arthritis Screening Questionnaire, GEPARD: German Psoriatic Arthritis Diagnostic Questionnaire, PAQ: Psoriatic and Arthritic Questionnaire, SiPAT: Siriraj Psoriatic Arthritis Screening ToolDisclosure of Interests:None declared.

Abstract:
In this study l/the researcher sought to examine the correlational and classificational agreement (sensitivity and specificity) between two very popular screening instruments which have undergone recent revisions-The Developmental Indicators for the Assessment of Learning-Revised (DIAL-R) and the Denver Developmental Screening Test-ll (Denver-ll) and one more recently published new screening instrument on the market--The Early Screening Profiles (ESP). The sample for this study consisted of 60 preschool children attending two federally and state funded preschool programs in Western Kentucky. The children were of the correct age to enter kindergarten in the fall of 1993. Results of this study revealed that the three instruments themselves showed an inability to classify children similarly. Using the DIAL-R as a criterion, the ESP and Denver-ll showed high specificity (88.9%-100%) but low sensitivity (25%-30%). While the correlation between the DIAL-R and ESP scores was moderately high (.72), its classification agreement was discrepant. One further interesting finding was that the group mean scores for children were significantly higher on the DIAL-R than on the ESP (mean difference=9.74 points). As the true job of any screening instrument is to accurately identify children who fall into high risk categories, these instruments appear to be "missing" many children. Analyzing all three instruments' classification agreements together resulted in discrepant identification of children.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to compare thirty-two childrens' performances on the Daberon-2 Screening for School Readiness and the Early Screening Inventory , as well as determine whether there was a correlation between the tests. This study responded to the needs of the local Portland, Oregon area schools, some of which use these tests, to investigate the tests, and explore the possibility of using the shorter ESI over the longer Daberon. The reasoning behind the goal of the study was to determine that if the two tests showed a strong, positive correlation and identified the same children as needing further assessment, then perhaps the test which was shorter to administer could be used with confidence as a faster, but equally reliable 2 pre-kindergarten screening tool. In other words, if a child "passes" the Daberon, one could assume that the child would most likely "pass" the ESI as well. Based on the results of this study, one can make this assumption with a reasonable amount of confidence. The subjects in this study included 16 males and 16 females. All were preschool students, ranging in age from 4-6 to 5-6 with a mean age of 5-1 years. The subjects were given the two tests in a counterbalanced order, which also varied as to sex so that not all of one sex received one test first. The standard scores and whether or not each subject "passed" or "failed" each screen was determined. The correlation between the two tests was also determined. The Pearson product moment correlation coefficient was used to determine the degree of relatedness between the tests. A high positive correlation of .73 was found between the Daberon and the ESI, with a shared variance

Abstract:
In the interest of early identification and prevention of dissociative disorders, this author has contributed to the research history of various screening instruments and has commented on the degree to which such instruments are appropriate for screening subjects in a college population. The Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES; Bernstein & Putnam & Putnam, 1986) was administered to approximately 2500 college freshmen. Subjects from various levels of the distribution of DES scores were recalled to the laboratory for further testing on the abbreviated version of the Structured Clinical Interview for Dissociative Disorders (Mini-SCID-D) (Steinberg, Rounsaville & Cicchetti, 1987) to determine how many of these subjects might actually qualify for a diagnosis of dissociative disorder. The results of this study supported the factor structure of the DES as reported by Ross, Joshi, and Currie (1991). In addition, the DES evidenced a significant predictive relationship with the Mini SCID-D. The research was designed to screen a population at large for dissociative tendencies, the results of which will be useful to people who wish to identify ostensibly normal individuals who may be at risk for dissociative disorders.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Cognitive impairments are common after stroke, particularly those involving the executive functioning, which is a complex cognitive construct encompassing a collection of interrelated functions (or set of processes) that are responsible for controlled goal-directed behaviours to novel or complex situations (Gioa, Isquith, & Guy, 2001). Therefore, deficits in executive processes can affect an individual profoundly. There are numerous executive measures currently available, however they are mostly language-laden, and therefore not ideal for stroke patients who are present with aphasia and neglect. Accordingly, in this thesis we aimed to develop unbiased measures of planning/organisation (the 'systematicity' index) using performance-based, language reduced, nonverbal tasks that are suitable for use in a stroke population. METHOD: Initially, we examined the cognitive variation in stroke profile, across various stages, using the Birmingham Cognitive Screen (BCoS: Humphreys, Bickerton, Samson, & Riddoch, 2012). Subsequently, we developed three novel scoring measures, on two key tests: 1) the Broken Hearts test (from the Oxford Cognitive Screen (OCS): Demeyere, Riddoch, Slavkova, Bickerton, & Humphreys, 2015) and 2) the Complex Figure test (from the BCoS/OCS). RESULTS: Measures include: I) The 'Nearest Neighbour' measure - validated against the subjective ratings provided by experienced neuropsychologists (of how systematic a patient is during cancellation) and a measure of executive function (EF); 2) the 'Global - Local Scoring System' - a qualitative scoring system that provides an index of executive measure for the BCoS Complex Figure which was validated against subjective ratings from experienced neuropsychologists and other measures of EF; 3) the 'automated Global-Local Scoring System'- validated against the 'Nearest Neighbour' measure on the overall cancellation performance. CONCLUSION: We conclude that these measures would be beneficial to clinicians in terms of measuring planning/organisation abilities of stroke survivors and freeing them from time consuming and tedious tasks.

Abstract:
The present study investigated the criterion-based validity of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Cognitive Capacity Screening Examination (CCSE), and the Neurobehavioral Cognitive Status Examination (NCSE) in a sample of older adults with suspected cognitive impairment. As cognitive screening tests, the MMSE, CCSE, and NCSE should predict performance relative to a more thorough testing procedure. In the present study, performance on the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery (HRNTB) was employed as the criterion measure. Scores on the General Neuropsychological Deficit Scale (G-NDS), a global performance measure computed from the HRNTB, served as the standard by which to judge the presence of cognitive impairment. The sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value of each screening test, as well as how well each screening test correlated with the G-NDS, were investigated. Results of this investigation found that, although the MMSE, CCSE, and NCSE were all significantly correlated with the G-NDS, only the NCSE demonstrated an appropriate balance between high sensitivity and specificity. When a rigorous neuropsychological evaluation was employed as the criterion standard, the NCSE accurately detected the presence of cognitive impairment: in 82% of the cases. The MMSE and CCSE, however, failed to detect cognitive deficits in approximately 80% of the cases. These findings strongly suggest that the MMSE and CCSE may have limited utility in the identification of cognitive impairment in older adults. The heightened sensitivity of the NCSE appears to be the result of several unigue features of the instrument, including a multidimensional scoring system and a graded series of increasingly difficult items within each ability area. Future studies need to examine the utility of the NCSE in other geriatric settings, as well as with more diverse populations suffering from a variety of organic mental syndromes.

Abstract:
This qualitative ethnographic study examines how cognitive screening tools are used in clinical practice in the process of articulating a classification of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). An exploration of how these low-technological tools constitute AD is important because of their central role in detecting initial cognitive decline in the ‘ageing population’. The study draws upon fieldwork undertaken across a secondary healthcare memory service and a major teaching hospital in the UK. Focusing on the everyday practices and interactions between clinicians, patients and these technologies, the study shows how these tools were made provisional, and yet emerged as central mediators for producing knowledge about AD. I explore the uncertainties associated with measures of cognitive decline and consider how these were navigated and managed through the making of the tools as provisional devices. I continue by showing how the tools emerged as central mediators for negotiating how classification proceeded in medical practice: producing and reproducing professional hierarchies and identities. I also investigate how uncertainty was mobilised by clinicians to constitute the boundaries of classification; fuelled by the possibility that patients may go on to develop AD. Finally, I demonstrate how the adoption of the tools in the wider policy terrain translated into everyday clinical practice; increased efforts to quantify cognitive decline at earlier stages, produced uncertainty around patient futures. I reflect on how the making of these tools as provisional devices, relied upon and resulted in the portability of these devices and, in turn, constituted AD. Portability highlights the temporal and spatial aspects of classification processes involved in diagnosis/prognosis, as well as patient and professional identities and autonomy. I conclude by considering the implications of these findings for the diagnosis and management of patients with cognitive decline and AD locally in the clinic, and with respect to managing the ‘ageing population’.

Abstract:
Magister Artium (Psychology) - MA(Psych)
The diagnosis of adult ADHD is a complex process that requires information from different sources. Instruments are used to screen or diagnose adult ADHD. The aim of the study was to identify instruments measuring adult ADHD from good quality research. This systematic review was executed following the recommended PRISMA steps. A comprehensive search was conducted across identified databases. The SFS scoring system was used to critically appraise for methodological rigour and coherence. Meta-synthesis was used to summarize extracted data from 26 articles included in the final summation. Ethics clearance was issued by the UWC Senate Research Committee. Sixteen instruments measuring adult ADHD were identified. Screening instruments measure core symptoms whereas diagnostic instruments assess all criteria. Fourteen instruments were based on DSM-IV criteria and four were based on DSM-V criteria for adult ADHD including rival explanations for the symptoms. The lack of adoption of DSM-V criteria remains a concern given criticism against DSV-IV criteria for adult ADHD. Overall instruments presented acceptable psychometric properties. However, the performance of the instruments was study dependent. A cautionary note is that these indices must be interpreted carefully. Further research must explore the reasons underlying the lack of adoption of DSM-V criteria in research, and the lack of revision of instruments measuring adult ADHD.

Abstract:
Child abuse and neglect occur in epidemic numbers in the United States and around the world, resulting in major physical and mental health consequences for abused children in the present and future. A vast amount of information is available on the signs and symptoms and short- and long-term consequences of abuse. A limited number of instruments have been empirically developed to screen for child abuse, with most focused on physical abuse in the context of the emergency department, which have been found to be minimally effective and lacking rigor. This literature review focuses on physical, sexual, and psychological abuse and neglect, occurring in one or multiple forms (polyabuse). A systematic, in-depth analysis of the literature was conducted. This literature review provides information for identifying children who have been abused and neglected but exposes the need for a comprehensive screening instrument or protocol that will capture all forms of child abuse and neglect. Screening needs to be succinct, user-friendly, and amenable for use with children at every point of care in the healthcare system.

Abstract:
Abstract A multi-functional self-examination ophthalmic device for remote eye examinations has been studied in this paper. The device integrates two standard ophthalmic examinations: slit-lamp and visual acuity. Testing of the device has been performed in a preliminary clinical study. The results show good and comparable images to those of conventional instruments routinely used in ophthalmic clinics. The device can be used in a myriad of remote settings including home monitoring.

In ASME 2010 13th International Conference on Environmental Remediation and Radioactive Waste Management. ASMEDC, 2010. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/icem2010-40255.

Abstract:
Significant cost-savings and operational efficiency may be realised by performing rapid non-destructive classification of radioactive waste at or near its point of retrieval or generation. There is often a need to quickly categorize and segregate bulk containers (drums, crates etc.) into waste streams defined at various boundary levels (based on its radioactive hazard) in order to meet disposal regulations and consignor waste acceptance criteria. Recent improvements in gamma spectroscopy technologies have provided the capability to perform rapid in-situ analysis using portable and hand-held devices such as battery-operated medium and high resolution detectors including lanthanum halide and high purity germanium (HPGe). Instruments and technologies that were previously the domain of complex lab systems are now widely available as touch-screen “off-the-shelf” units. Despite such advances, the task of waste stream screening and segregation remains a complex exercise requiring a detailed understanding of programmatic requirements and, in particular, the capability to ensure data quality when operating in the field. This is particularly so when surveying historical waste drums and crates containing heterogeneous debris of unknown composition. The most widely used portable assay method is based upon far-field High Resolution Gamma Spectroscopy (HRGS) assay using HPGe detectors together with a well engineered deployment cart (such as the PSC TechniCART™ technology). Hand-held Sodium Iodide (NaI) detectors are often also deployed and may also be used to supplement the HPGe measurements in locating hot spots. Portable neutron slab monitors may also be utilised in cases where gamma measurements alone are not suitable. Several case histories are discussed at various sites where this equipment has been used for in-situ characterization of debris waste, sludge, soil, high activity waste, depleted and enriched uranium, heat source and weapons grade plutonium, fission products, activation products, americium, curium and other more exotic nuclides. The process of acquiring and analyzing data together with integration of historical knowledge to resolve and delineate waste streams (for example between low-level waste and transuranic waste) is described.

Abstract:
Abstract The SuperCam instrument was selected by NASA in July 2014 and has been implemented on the Mars 2020 Perseverance rover. This instrumental suite gathers four different remote-sensing techniques including a very compact Infrared Spectrometer (IRS). For several reasons of costs and planning and after a risk mitigation phase, the use of full commercial-off-the-shelf photodiodes from TELEDYNE JUDSON J19 Series as detector for the IRS was decided. This paper describes the procurement, evaluation, and qualification philosophy of these photodiodes, providing information on the subsystems of the SuperCam instrument and the description of these photodiodes. Critical and fragile parts of the photodiode as the thermo electric cooler, have been particularly studied. In conclusion, the component was space qualified using the original use of the particle impact noise detection test applied for a mechanical screening purpose, with correlation between performance and fine leak, screening and the lot acceptance test processes.
