Prognostication in Schizophrenia
Psychopathology, 1986A long-term follow-up study with a mean duration of 20.2 years was performed in 5-year periods for 280 male schizophrenic patients discharged 1946-1950. To avoid a heterogeneous evaluation of the prognosis the author combined the outcome variables 'symptomatology', 'working ability' and 'social integration' as 'overall prognostic index'. Thus the final

AbstractPrognostication involves formulation and communication about the expected course of the disease and is unique in surgical oncology because of the need to incorporate patient, procedural, and cancer‐related factors. Several tools and techniques are available to assist physicians in formulating prognosis on the basis of these factors.
