Item Response Theory Analysis of the MDS-UPDRS Motor Examination: Tremor vs. Nontremor Items.
(Movement disorders : official journal of the Movement Disorder Society, 2020-05-29)
BACKGROUND:In PD, tremor severity behaves differently from other core motor features.
However, the most commonly used assessment of overall motor severity, total MDS-UPDRS
Motor Examination (Part 3) score, does not account ...
Functional survival forests for multivariate longitudinal outcomes: Dynamic prediction of Alzheimer's disease progression.
(Statistical methods in medical research, 2020-07-29)
The random survival forest (RSF) is a non-parametric alternative to the Cox proportional
hazards model in modeling time-to-event data. In this article, we developed a modeling
framework to incorporate multivariate longitudinal ...
Automated Structured Reporting for Thyroid Ultrasound: Effect on Reporting Errors and Efficiency.
(Journal of the American College of Radiology : JACR, 2020-08-17)
PURPOSE:To compare the effectiveness of different reporting templates using the ACR
Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) for thyroid ultrasound. METHODS:In
this retrospective study, four radiologists implemented ...
Cross-sectional CT Assessment of the Extent of Injectate Spread at CT Fluoroscopy-guided Cervical Epidural Interlaminar Steroid Injections.
(Radiology, 2019-07-16)
Background Previous studies analyzed contrast agent spread during cervical interlaminar
epidural steroid injections (CILESIs) by using planar fluoroscopy and reported wide
variance of the rate of spread to the ventral epidural ...
Validation of the Finnish Version of the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale.
(European neurology, 2021-07-14)
<h4>Introduction</h4>The Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) was developed to
provide a comprehensive rating tool of dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease (PD). Because
dyskinesia therapy trials involve multicenter studies, ...
Prognostic Modeling of Parkinson's Disease Progression Using Early Longitudinal Patterns of Change.
(Movement disorders : official journal of the Movement Disorder Society, 2021-07-30)
<h4>Background</h4>Predicting Parkinson's disease (PD) progression may enable better
adaptive and targeted treatment planning.<h4>Objective</h4>Develop a prognostic model
using multiple, easily acquired longitudinal measures ...
Population value decomposition, a framework for the analysis of image populations
(Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2011)
Intranasal Oxytocin in Children and Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
(The New England journal of medicine, 2021-10)
<h4>Background</h4>Experimental studies and small clinical trials have suggested that
treatment with intranasal oxytocin may reduce social impairment in persons with autism
spectrum disorder. Oxytocin has been administered ...
Predicting outcomes after intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxina for non-neurogenic urgency incontinence in women.
(Neurourology and urodynamics, 2021-12-02)
<h4>Aims</h4>Develop models to predict outcomes after intradetrusor injection of 100
or 200 units of onabotulinumtoxinA in women with non-neurogenic urgency urinary incontinence
(UUI).<h4>Methods</h4>Models were developed ...
