Redefining normal reference ranges for echocardiography: a major new individual person data meta-analysis.
Current recommended reference ranges for echocardiographic measurements may not be relevant to the diverse world population they are applied to. A new study, the echocardiographic normal reference ranges of the left heart (EchoNoRMAL) study, is an individual person data meta-analysis of standard echocardiographic measurements which aims to re-define normal reference ranges of left heart dimensi...
متن کاملNormal reference ranges for echocardiography: do we really need more?
Echocardiography is themostwidelyusednon-invasivecardiac imaging for assessing the cardiac structure and function. Echocardiography has the advantage of low cost, no radiation risk, and great availability. However, as for any diagnostic test, its interpretation depends on its ability to accurately detect abnormalities. Actually, the definition of ‘abnormal’ relies on the definition of ‘normal’ ...

هدف اصلی از این تحقیق به دست آوردن و مقایسه حق بیمه باورمندی در مدل های شمارشی گزارش نشده برای داده های طولی می باشد. در این تحقیق حق بیمه های پبش گویی بر اساس توابع ضرر مربع خطا و نمایی محاسبه شده و با هم مقایسه می شود. تمایل به گرفتن پاداش و جایزه یکی از دلایل مهم برای گزارش ندادن تصادفات می باشد و افراد برای استفاده از تخفیف اغلب از گزارش تصادفات با هزینه پائین خودداری می کنند، در این تحقیق ...
15 صفحه اولNormal Reference Ranges for Echocardiography: rationale, study design, and methodology (NORRE Study).
BACKGROUND Availability of normative reference values for cardiac chamber dimensions, volumes, mass, and function is a prerequisite for the accurate application of echocardiography for both clinical and research purposes. However, due to the lack of consistency in current echocardiographic 'reference values', their use for clinical decision-making remains questionable. AIMS The aim of the 'No...
متن کاملAnaemia and Haemoglobin A1c level: Is there a case for redefining reference ranges and therapeutic goals?
Background: Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) has been adopted by physicians as a surrogate for monitoring glycemic control. There exists concern that other factors beyond serum glucose concentration may affect glycation rates and by extrapolation HbA1c levels. Study Objectives: The study attempts to discern clinical differences in HbA1c levels in patients with anaemia compared to patients without anaemi...
