The Naples prognostic score in esophagus cancer: Prognostic and beyond

Bulletin du Cancer, 2023
The role of inflammation in tumor biology has been better understood over time. The utility of the Naples prognostic score (NPS), which is a novel inflammation-based marker, was shown in esophageal carcinoma (EC) patients treated with surgery.

A PROGNOSTIC SCORE FOR Graves' DISEASE

Clinical Endocrinology, 1985
SUMMARYWe have reanalysed the clinical and laboratory data on 196 individuals with Graves' disease. The consensus of two clustering techniques and a new method of allocating patients to a cluster resulted in two groups of patients, those with a severe and others with a mild disease. The severe disorder is characterized by a high frequency of HLA‐B8 and‐

Prognostic scoring systems in MDS

Leukemia Research, 2012
Prognostic scoring systems in myelodysplastic syndromes are useful tools in order to get in idea on the expected course of the disease and offer patients a risk adapted treatment. Several good scores have been developed, the international prognostic scoring system (IPSS) being the gold standard for 15 years, now validated and refined.

Prognostic Models and the Propensity Score

International Journal of Epidemiology, 1995
Subjects in observational studies of exposure effects have not been randomized to exposure groups and may therefore differ systematically with regard to variables related to exposure and/or outcome. To obtain unbiased estimates and tests of exposure effects one needs to adjust for these variables.

A Combined Scoring System of Palliative Prognostic Index and Laboratory Prognostic Score

American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®
Purpose We hypothesized that combining the Palliative Prognostic Index (PPI; maximum score: 15) with the Laboratory Prognostic Score (LPS; maximum score: 10), which is based on blood test parameters, would yield superior prognostic accuracy compared with each score alone.

Prognostic Score for Pneumocystis carinii Pneumonia

Respiration, 2009
Sixty episodes of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in 59 patients were evaluated for risk factors predicting fatal outcome within 14 days after bronchoscopy. We found significantly higher values for serum lactate dehydrogenase (p < 0.001), alveolar-arterial oxygen difference (p < 0.001) and percentage of bronchoalveolar lavage neutrophils (p < 0.

The IBTIS score; a new prognostic score for arthroscopic biceps tenotomies

Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research, 2022
Shoulder pain associated with tendinopathy of the long head of biceps (LHB) is common. Surgical treatment with arthroscopic tenotomy of the LHB has been shown to be effective. However, it's efficacy is inconsistent. The objective of this study was to assess the pre-operative clinical and radiological prognostic factors of arthroscopic tenotomy of the ...

Prognostic scoring systems in burns: A review

Burns, 2011
Survival after burn has steadily improved over the last few decades. Patient mortality is, however, still the primary outcome measure for burn care. Scoring systems aim to use the most predictive premorbid and injury factors to yield an expected likelihood of death for a given patient. Age, burn surface area and inhalational injury remain the mainstays
