Methotrexate: the gold standard without standardisation.
Even in the current era of biological targeted therapies, methotrexate (MTX) remains the initial preferred antirheumatic drug and is widely prescribed for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The combination of its perceived efficacy, acceptable safety profile and low cost, as well as decades of clinical experience with its use that have been accumulated by current and previous generations ...
متن کاملEvaluation of diagnostic accuracy in detecting ordered symptom statuses without a gold standard.
Our research is motivated by 2 methodological problems in assessing diagnostic accuracy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) doctors in detecting a particular symptom whose true status has an ordinal scale and is unknown-imperfect gold standard bias and ordinal scale symptom status. In this paper, we proposed a nonparametric maximum likelihood method for estimating and comparing the accuracy o...
متن کاملDetection of Echinococcus multilocularis by MC-PCR: evaluation of diagnostic sensitivity and specificity without gold standard
INTRODUCTION A semi-automated magnetic capture probe-based DNA extraction and real-time PCR method (MC-PCR), allowing for a more efficient large-scale surveillance of Echinococcus multilocularis occurrence, has been developed. The test sensitivity has previously been evaluated using the sedimentation and counting technique (SCT) as a gold standard. However, as the sensitivity of the SCT is not ...
متن کاملEstimation in medical imaging without a gold standard.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES In medical imaging, physicians often estimate a parameter of interest (eg, cardiac ejection fraction) for a patient to assist in establishing a diagnosis. Many different estimation methods may exist, but rarely can one be considered a gold standard. Therefore, evaluation and comparison of different estimation methods are difficult. The purpose of this study was to exami...
متن کاملModeling without a Gold Standard: Stratification with Stratum-dependent Parameters
• Bayesian latent-class models have been widely applied for assessing the performance of diagnostic tests in the absence of a gold standard. We provide a short discussion on identifiability issues appearing under the absence of a gold standard, and construct an extension of the well-known Hui–Walter stratification model which allows for stratumdependent parameters. We illustrate our approach us...
