Predicted Values for Clinical Exercise Testing

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1984
Abstract Following thorough evaluation at rest, 265 of 400 current or ex-shipyard workers rode a cycle ergometer with equal work increments each minute to exhaustion while continuous multiple noninvasive cardiorespiratory measures and intermittent intra-arterial blood pressure and blood gas measures were made.

The predictive value of endodontic diagnostic tests

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1984
The diagnostic usefulness of common endodontic tests was evaluated through the retrospective analysis of studies in which histologic examinations were performed. In general, tests were able to adequately identify persons who were likely to be free of disease but were substantially less effective in identifying disease-positive persons.

Predictive value of coagulation tests in arterial thrombosis

La Ricerca in Clinica e in Laboratorio, 1988
In five large-scale prospective studies the predictive value of hemostatic parameters indicating the occurrence of arterial thrombotic diseases has been estimated in healthy individuals. All the studies have consistently found a statistically significant association between hyperfibrinogenemia and arterial thrombotic diseases. In two studies, increased

Predictive value of the dexamethasone suppression test in mania

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1984
Eighteen manic patients who had abnormal results on the dexamethasone suppression test at admission were retested before discharge, when they were clinically stable. Conversion to normal suppression predicted good outcome after discharge, whereas a persistently abnormal test predicted poor outcome.

Predictive Value and Efficiency of Laboratory Testing

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1980
Literature on determining reference values and reference intervals on "normal" or "healthy" individuals is abundant. It is impossible, however, to evaluate a data set of reference values and select a suitable reference interval that will be meaningful for the practice of medicine.

Normal tension glaucoma: The value of predictive tests

Acta Ophthalmologica, 1993
Abstract. Fifty‐four normal tension glaucoma cases were studied to determine the value of several clinical tests for predicting the progression of the disease. Outflow facility, intraocular pressure (IOP) increase after water drinking, and diurnal changes in IOP were studied.

Antiphospholipid Antibodies: Predictive Value of Laboratory Tests

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1997
aPL antibodies are a wide and heterogeneous family of autoantibodies, formerly believed to be directed at anionic phospholipids. In recent years they have been shown to be directed at plasma proteins bound to suitable (phospholipid) anionic surface: beta 2-GPI and prothrombin are the best known and characterized antigens, which are recognized by aCL ...
