Abstract:
INTRODUCTION Low back pain effects up to 80% of the population at some time during their active life. Questionnaires are available to help measure pain and disability. The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is the most commonly used outcome measure for low back pain. The aim of this study was to see if training in completing the ODI forms improved the scoring accuracy. PATIENTS AND METHODS The last 100 ODI forms completed in a hospital's spinal clinic were reviewed retrospectively and errors in the scoring were identified. Staff members involved in scoring the questionnaire were made aware of the

Apart from creditworthiness, to grant a credit product, banks are using credit scoring more and more often.

Abstract:
Egypt is currently witnessing an extensive desert greening plan with a target of adding one and a half million feddans to the agricultural area. The present study evaluates the soil quality in the western desert fringes of the Nile Delta using three indicator datasets, which involve the total dataset (TDS), the minimum dataset (MDS), and the expert dataset (EDS). Three quality index models are included: the Additive Soil Quality Index (SQI-A), the Weighted Additive Soil Quality Index (SQI-W), and the Nemoro Soil Quality Index (SQI-N). Linear and nonlinear scoring functions are evaluated for sc

Abstract:
Objective: As fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is the primary tool for evaluation of breast lesions, it is essential to segregate lesions with low and high risk of malignancy. To address this, Masood proposed a cytological scoring system for categorization, Masood’s Scoring Index (MSI), which was modified later (Modified Masood’s Scoring Index [MMSI]). This study analyses the effectiveness of MMSI over MSI and assesses the concordance between cytological scoring and histopathology. Study Design: All breast FNACs over a period of 2 years were categorized based on MSI and MMSI by 2 reviewe

Abstract:
Background Comprehensive care for critically ill children in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) is done with the aim of achieving good outcomes. Severe disease in children is characterized by disruption of homeostatic processes, and can be evaluated by mortality scoring methods. There are several mortality scoring methods which can be used to predict mortality in children, the pediatric risk of mortality (PRISM) and pediatric index of mortality (PIM) are the most preferably used among all. The pediatric index of mortality 2(PIM2) is a key mortality prediction model for children receiving

Abstract:
Abstract Allogeneic hematologic cell transplantation (alloHCT) is the only curative therapy for many adults with hematological malignancies. However, it can be associated with substantial risks of morbidity and mortality that are dependent on patient comorbidity– or disease risk–related factors. Several pretransplantation prognostic scoring systems have been developed to estimate survival of patients undergoing alloHCT; however, there is significant interstudy variability in the predictive capacity of these assessment tools. We tested the prognostic capability of a composite scoring system inc
