The Validity of a Screening Test
Optometry and Vision Science, 1982Abstract Many health professionals screen for the early detection of disease. Unfortunately, many of the tests and programs have poor validity or are applied to screening populations where the prevalence of disease precludes efficient screening operations.

British Journal of Urology, 1969
SUMMARY A screening test for pyuria, based on the peroxidase reaction, is described. After filtration of 10 ml. urine through a filter paper, one or two drops of Prescott and Brodie's stain are added to the sediment on the paper. A bluish spot indicates increased numbers of white cells in the urine and is recorded as positive.

Pediatrics, 1976
The article by Schwartz and Murphy1 in the May 1975 issue emphasizes the key position of the pediatrician in recognition of speech and language disorders, as well as the lack of training of health professionals in this important area of development. We would like to call attention to a five-minute screening test appropriate for children ...

Biometrics, 1989
We point out the connection between quality control and repeated screening tests, and suggest a practical way to design the repeated screening tests so that the composite test achieves the desired level of sensitivity and specificity. We further point out the benefits of using likelihood ratios to measure the performance of a screening test.

Role of screening tests in rapid testing
Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 1986Screening tests have had a major role in the diagnostic microbiology laboratory during recent years. Many factors have contributed to the increased use of these methods. The primary factor is the need for rapid detection and identification of the etiologic agent in life-threatening infections, which include bacterial meningitis, infective endocarditis ...
