Prognostic factor research in Homoeopathy

Indian Journal of Research in Homoeopathy, 2016
Validation of homoeopathic medicines is about validating effectiveness in individual cases. Homoeopathic practitioners base their expectation that a medicine will work on the experience that specific symptoms of the patient indicate specific medicines. The prevalence of such symptoms is higher in a population responding well to a specific medicine than

Investigating Age-Dependent Oxygenation and Blood Perfusion in a Mouse Model of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Using Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT), Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging (LSCI) and Histology

Diagnostics
Background/Objectives: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is frequently asymptomatic, requiring non-invasive approaches for disease evaluation and therapy monitoring.

State of the art in selection of variables and functional forms in multivariable analysis—outstanding issues

Diagnostic and Prognostic Research, 2020
Background How to select variables and identify functional forms for continuous variables is a key concern when creating a multivariable model. Ad hoc ‘traditional’ approaches to variable selection have been in use for at least 50 years.

Predicting adverse outcomes in adults with a community-acquired lower respiratory tract infection: a protocol for the development and validation of two prediction models for (i) all-cause hospitalisation and mortality and (ii) cardiovascular outcomes

Diagnostic and Prognostic Research, 2023
Background Community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are common in primary care and patients at particular risk of adverse outcomes, e.g., hospitalisation and mortality, are challenging to identify.

Broad external validation of a multivariable risk prediction model for gastrointestinal malignancy in iron deficiency anaemia

Diagnostic and Prognostic Research, 2021
Background Using two large datasets from Dorset, we previously reported an internally validated multivariable risk model for predicting the risk of GI malignancy in IDA—the IDIOM score.

Knowledge translation of prediction rules: methods to help health professionals understand their trade-offs

Diagnostic and Prognostic Research, 2021
Clinical prediction models are developed with the ultimate aim of improving patient outcomes, and are often turned into prediction rules (e.g. classifying people as low/high risk using cut-points of predicted risk) at some point during the development ...

Purines for Rapid Identification of Stroke Mimics (PRISM): study protocol for a diagnostic accuracy study

Diagnostic and Prognostic Research, 2021
Background Rapid treatment of stroke improves outcomes, but accurate early recognition can be challenging. Between 20 and 40% of patients suspected to have stroke by ambulance and emergency department staff later receive a non-stroke ‘mimic’ diagnosis ...

Prognostication in advanced cancer: update and directions for future research [PDF]

Supportive Care in Cancer, 2019
The objective of this review is to provide an update on prognostication in patients with advanced cancer and to discuss future directions for research in this field. Accurate prognostication of survival for patients with advanced cancer is vital, as patient life expectancy informs many important personal and clinical decisions.
