This test was performed as part of the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) assessment (detailed below), as it is part of this scale. Maximum isometric knee extension (IKE). A previously calibrated handheld digital dynamometer (model 01165, LaFayette, USA) was used to measure the isometric...
Validation of the acoustic change complex (ACC) prediction model to predict speech perception in noise in adult patients with hearing loss: a study protocol Speech perception tests are essential to measure the functional use of hearing and to determine the effectiveness of hearing aids and implantable...
The vestibular autorotation test (VAT) is a commercially accessible computer-based test. The individual is requested to actively move the head at high frequencies (2–6 Hz) during the test to measure both horizontal and vertical VOR responses. This method allows for the measurement of the vestibu...
diagnostic categories, including language or developmental delay. After a toddler is identified as having ASD, there may be a low chance that he or she will test within typical levels at 3 years of age. This finding opens the opportunity to test the impact of very early-age treatment of ...
To measure the severity of the misophonia symptoms, we developed an adapted version of the Yale-Brown Obsessive- Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) [10,11], which we have named the Amsterdam Misophonia Scale (A-MISO-S). Similar adaptations of the Y-BOCS have appeared to be rel...
Sensitivity-Measure of how often a test is able to correctly identify the substance within the sample as a true positive. The more sensitive a test the lower cutoff levels they possess allowing them to detect minute amounts of the tested substance. Low levels of sensitivity will produce more ...
Memory impairment was defined as a score less than 1.5 SDs below the demographically corrected mean on an average composite measure comprising the following learning and memory measures: (1) total recall from the Selective Reminding Test, (2) delayed free recall from the Selective Reminding Test, ...
