Case‐Mix Adjustment of Multidimensional Patient‐Reported Outcomes to Assess Hospital Performance

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multidimensional patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly used to compare the performance of health care providers. Meaningful comparisons require the data to be adjusted for differences in case‐mix. The common approach in the literature is to aggregate PROM data into univariate summary scores prior to case‐mix adjustment. In

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control

Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting in Early Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Adjuvant Chemotherapy With Fluorouracil, Epirubicin, Cyclophosphamide Followed by Docetaxel Versus an Anthracycline‐Free Regimen With Docetaxel, Cyclophosphamide—Results From a Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a significant clinical problem despite modern antiemetics. In particular, antiemetic strategies for emerging cancer therapies lack detailed evaluation. This randomized trial analyzed hourly CINV data for patients with early breast cancer who received either docetaxel plus cyclophosphamide (TC) or ...

Bayesian Hierarchical Ordinal Regression

2005
We present a Bayesian approach to ordinal regression. Our model is based on a hierarchical mixture of experts model and performs a soft partitioning of the input space into different ranks, such that the order of the ranks is preserved. Experimental results on benchmark data sets show a comparable performance to support vector machine and Gaussian ...
