Periodontal disease, biomarkers of ADRD risk, and cognitive functioning

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis is a hypothesized risk factor for cognitive impairment. Many prior studies lack information on biological markers of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) risk or genetic risk markers. We assessed the association between periodontitis, biological markers of ADRD risk, and cognitive test performance with ...

Addressing limitations in current measurement practices of trauma assessment in minoritized populations

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Standardized trauma assessment frameworks often fail to account for the unique experiences and symptom presentations of minoritized populations, including Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) and sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals, leading to methodological inequity.

Anchor selection strategies for DIF analysis: Review, assessment, and new approaches [PDF]

, 2013
Differential item functioning (DIF) indicates the violation of the invariance assumption for instance in models based on item response theory (IRT). For item-wise DIF analysis using IRT, a common metric for the item parameters of the groups that are to ...

Responsiveness and ceiling effects of Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Evidence from the UK National Ligament Registry

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Multiple versions of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) are used in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) populations, but their responsiveness and ceiling effects remain uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the floor and ceiling effects, responsiveness and minimal important difference (MID) using the United Kingdom ...
