Personalized Treatment Plans with Multivariate Outcome Measures
In this work we propose a novel method for individualized treatment selection when the treatment response is multivariate. Our method covers any number of treatments and it can be applied for a broad set of models. The proposed method uses a rank aggregation technique to estimate an ordering of treatments based on ranked lists of treatment performance measures such as smooth conditional means a...
متن کاملHow Ocular Surface Disease Impacts the Glaucoma Treatment Outcome
The treatment goals for glaucoma are lowering the intraocular pressure and preservation of vision. Topical hypotensive drops are the standard form of therapy which is often associated with some symptoms of toxicity, ocular inflammation, allergy, or ocular surface disease (OSD). OSD is a common comorbidity in glaucoma patients, and its prevalence with glaucoma increases with age. Use of topical ...
متن کاملOutcome Measures
Compliance with established standards has been the benchmark of evaluating all kinds of academic, professional, commercial and administrative endeavours over the last one hundred years or so. Academic awards, for example, have been gained by passing examinations specific to that discipline of study. The awards themselves have been subject to accreditation procedures, often established by both i...
متن کاملOverview of clinical outcome measures used in glaucoma randomised controlled trials (RCTS)
Results The search strategy identified 4288 potentially relevant abstracts. There were 315 publications retrieved, of which 233 RCTs were included. A total of 967 clinical measures were reported. There were large variations in the definitions used to describe different outcomes and their measures. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was the most commonly reported outcome (used in 201 RCTs, 86%) with a t...
متن کاملRho Kinase Inhibitors as a Novel Treatment for Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension
In an elegant example of bench-to-bedside research, a hypothesis that cells in the outflow pathway actively regulate conventional outflow resistance was proposed in the 1990s and systematically pursued, exposing novel cellular and molecular mechanisms of intraocular pressure (IOP) regulation. The critical discovery that pharmacologic manipulation of the cytoskeleton of outflow pathway cells dec...
