and intuitively larger STEMIs in younger patients were eligible for this therapy, but increasingly also smaller infarcts and older patients have proven to benefit from primary PCI.3 Typically, in centres providing the service of primary PCI in the Netherlands, about a third of the total number ...
Although the aldosterone/renin ratio (ARR) is the most reliable screening test for primary aldosteronism, false positives and negatives occur. Dietary salt... Stowasser,M. - 《Hormone & Metabolic Research》 被引量: 77发表: 2012年 Aldosterone-to-Renin and Cortisol-to-Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Rati...
The choice for the within-person MIC value depends on the consequences of false positives and false negatives in a particular setting. The between-group MID was estimated at -1.5 points. CONCLUSIONS: We determined the within-person MIC and between-group MID for the HIT-6 in a primary-care ...
We calculated sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive values (PPV), negative predictive values (NPV) and 95% confidence intervals and explored reasons for identifying false negatives and false positives. Prevalence of maltreatment was reported because this number affects the PPV and NPV. ...
72 This clinical diagnostic skill has the potential to improve patient comfort and satisfaction, improve clinicians’ self-efficacy regarding non-invasive diagnosis, and reduce costs to the healthcare system. While skillful use of dermoscopy reduces false positives and negatives of melanoma early ...

Computerized Clinical Records, which are incorporated in primary health care practice, have great potential for research. In order to use this information, data quality and reliability must be assessed to prevent compromising the validity of the results. The aim of this study is to validate the di...
