Context: Change in ability realization reflects the main contribution of rehabilitation to improvement in the performance of daily activities after spinal cord lesions (SCL).
Objective: To adapt a Spinal Cord Ability Realization Measurement Index (SCI-ARMI) formula to the new Spinal Cord Independence Measure version 4 (SCIM4).
Methods: Using data from 156 individuals for whom American Spinal Injury Association Motor Score (AMS) and SCIM4 scores were collected, we obtained an estimate for the highest possible SCIM4 given the patient's AMS value, using the 95th percentile of SCIM4 values at discharge from rehabilitation (SCIM95) for patients with any given AMS at discharge.
Purpose: To compare 2 different datasets, using Eyetemis, an online analytical tool designed for assessing the spherical equivalent prediction errors (SEQ-PEs) of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas after cataract surgery.
Setting: Institutional.
Design: Retrospective case series.
Article Synopsis
- The study compares the accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power predictions between two devices, the Eyestar 900 and the IOLMaster 700, using both estimated and measured posterior corneal power.
- 225 cataract surgery patients were involved, and measurements were taken preoperatively to assess prediction errors using the Barrett Universal II formula.
- Results indicate that both devices have similar accuracy and precision, but adjustments may be needed for the lens factor when using measured posterior keratometry.
We discuss three issues. In the first part, we discuss the criteria emphasized by Maurer, Bretz, and Xun, warning that it modifies the per comparison error rate that does not address the concerns raised by multiple testing. In the second part, we strengthen the optimality results developed in the paper, based on our recent results.
