The tested positive predictive value of assessment of disc-radicular conflict of the cervical spine by means of SSEP is 87%. The 95% confidence interval (Cl) is 0.87 (0.81-0.93) (Tab. 3, Fig. 4, Ref. 23). Full Text (Free, PDF) www.bmj.sk. Titlic, M.Univ Hosp SplitKolic, K....
Six of the studies reported index of prediction accuracy values that ranged between 54.15% and 94.6%. Eight of the studies assessed discrimination using AUC values, which ranged between 0.625 and 0.986. Notably, none of the studies reported on calibration measures. The variation in terms of ...
The difference in mean accuracy of performance between models for the outcomes of neck disability index (NDI) (F = 5.371,p = 0.001), EuroQol five dimensions self-report (EQ5D) (F = 35.488,p < 0.001), and neck pain intensity (F = 22.36,p < 0.001) were si...
In addition, even though the pain level was rather high and two thirds of the patients had multiple pain sites, their disability as evaluated by Neck Disability Index was relatively low in the present study compared to other studies [20,21]. In addition, the way we measure credibility and ...

A better spatial precision for LC prediction could be achieved with the incorporation of more predictors, but testing, for example, the topographic position index on different spatial scales has not shown a significant effect. In addition to derivates of precipitation and elevation, reliable high-...

This means that even where there is some standard structural cause present (such as a bulging or herniated disc in someone with back pain) the way we experience our symptoms may over time come to involve large doses of mind-set and expectation. In a certain sense, chronic pain at that ...
Controls had significantly higher concentration of VEGF and sVEGFR-2 in tears, but VEGF/sVEGFR-2 tears index was higher in SSc patients. In case of coefficients, only MMP-2 serum/TIMP-1 serum and MMP-2 serum/TIMP-2 serum, as well as VEGF/sVEGFR-2 serum did not differ significantly ...
Chen [157] later analyzed seismic energy at a hydropower station in China to create a new seismic energy index. They studied the features, size, and laws of the radiated energy and their relationship to the intensity of rockburst. The energy-size-scaling (ESS) criterion was originally ...
