Specificity

there exists a determined need for heightened specificity and qualified documentation with respect to the subsequent effects of any treatment/procedure and the patient’s status and condition. These demands call for an experienced, certified cardiology coding specialist. The three areas in which the ICD-10 has called for change that relates specifically to the practice of cardiology include changes in definitions, the need for increased specificity, and refinements and negations with regard to terminology

analysis. The statistical measures included sensitivity/specificity, positive/negative likelihood ratios, and 95% confidence intervals. Specific Statistical Results for Outcomes of Interest. Or, the major themes from a qualitative study. Cite pages. Results for chlamydia rapid test (CRT) for sensitivity (95% CI) was 80% (73% to 85%) and for vaginal swab specimens and for first void urine results for sensitivity were 77% (59% to 89%). Specificity was 99% (99%-100%) for vaginal swab specimens and 99%

aided dermoscopy has been proven to have higher accuracy in diagnosing patients. In one study, expert physicians scored a sensitivity of 81% and specificity of 95%, whereas the computer aided dermoscopy scored 93% on sensitivity and 95% specificity. (Barzegari, Ghaninezhad, Mansoori, Taheri, Naraghi, & Asgari, 2005) The high sensitivity and specificity of the computer diagnosis is the result of the lack of bias computers have in comparison to physicians and dermatologists. In computer-aided dermoscopy

While reproductive isolation benefits from outcrossing, it more specifically benefits from orchids’ pollinator specificity. Around 60-70% of orchids have just a one pollinator species. This specificity is the main prezygotic reproductive isolation mechanism for the orchids. However, this high specificity in deceptive orchids can be unclear. It depends more on the pollinator specificity of the most deceptive orchids- the food deceptive orchids. Food deceptive orchids that are sympatric often share

Tuberculosis (TB), a deadly contagious disease is among the three major infectious killers that causes high mortality and morbidity, worldwide.1 Tuberculosis infects one-third of the world's population with an estimated 8.7 million new cases and 1.4 million deaths every year (WHO, 2012)2. Tuberculosis prevention has become more complex due to increased resistance against different antibiotics including rifampicin.3 TB is a socio-economic disaster that is occurring worldwide, especially in Asia

build SVM that is trained with 75\% of the data and tested on 25\% of data. The proposed method achieved 76.00\% (sensitivity) and 82.59\% (specificity) for baseline vs T1, 80.00\% (sensitivity) and 82.59\% (specificity) for baseline vs T2, 84.71\% (sensitivity) and 85.18\% (specificity) for baseline vs T3, and 92.24\%, (sensitivity) and 89.65\% (specificity) for baseline vs

status. Pain is usually described as unfavorable experience that has a lasting emotional and disabling influence on the individual. Theories that explain and assist in understanding what pain is, how it originates and why we feel it are the Specificity theory, Pattern Theory and Gate theory. In this paper I will attempt to demonstrate my understanding of the theories and also will be critically analyzing the theories about the experience of pain by incorporating relevant concepts from literature

The Effects of Temperature and Specificity on the Activity of Enzyme Afomia Zewdie BIOL-1406-S4L Lab June 30, 2016 Abstract This experiment was performed in order to determine how the condition of the environment and the specificity can affect enzymatic activity. The activity of enzyme, how efficiently the enzyme functions, is affected by general environmental factors, such as temperature and PH. It can also affected by chemicals that specifically influence that enzyme. In condition

Out of 100 patients studied in this research, the age incidence varies between 12 to 47 years, the maximum incidence of acute appendicitis was found in age group of 21- 40 years [56 patients (56%)], followed by age group of ≤20 years [28 patients (28%)] and lastly the age group of 41-60 years [16 patients (16%)]. Regarding to sex, males were more than females [68 males (68%) vs 32 females (32%) with a ratio of 2.13:1 respectively]. Married patients were suffering from acute appendicitis more than

most of the cases of non traumatic acute abdomen. All the disease entities showed good kappa agreement beyond chance, and they were all statistically significant (P< 0.001) with highest prove in abscess diagnosis (86.0%). Table (4): Sensitivity & Specificity of US diagnosis in acute
