Correlation of PROMIS CAT instruments with Oswestry Disability Index in chiropractic patients.

Complement Ther Clin Pract

New York Chiropractic College, 2360 State Route 89, Seneca Falls, NY 13148, United States.

Published: May 2018

Background: The inefficiency associated with collecting standard validated instruments has been a barrier to routine use. We utilized computer adaptive testing (CAT) instruments available through Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) and correlated these with the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI).

Methods: All measurements were collected at a routine chiropractic visit. The ODI assessment was used for comparison as a widely used patient reported outcomes instrument.

Results: The average time to complete all questions during an office visit was 170 ± 67 s (average ± Stdev) to answer 25 ± 6 questions. Regression analysis revealed a good linear fit between ODI and both PROMIS pain behavior and physical function with R values of 0.5219 and 0.6754 respectively, and a good linear fit between anxiety and depression with R values of 0.5236.

Conclusions: PROMIS CAT instruments can be efficiently administered during routine clinical visits and correlations values found validate the utility when compared to ODI.

Background: There is no standardization within hand and upper-extremity surgery regarding which patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are collected and reported. This limits the ability to compare or combine cohorts that utilize different PROMs. The aim of this study was to develop a linkage model for the QuickDASH (shortened version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) and PROMIS PF CAT (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Physical Function computerized adaptive testing) instruments to allow interconversion between these PROMs in a hand surgery population.

Background: Clear aligner treatment (CAT) has emerged as an effective alternative to conventional multibracket systems in orthodontics. The trimline design and extension of aligners may significantly influence their biomechanical performance and tooth movement efficacy.

Aim: To systematically review the biomechanical effects of different aligner trimline designs and extensions on orthodontic tooth movement.

The health, safety, and well-being of household pets such as cats has become a challenging task in previous years. To estimate a cat's behavior, objective observations of both the frequency and variability of specific behavior traits are required, which might be difficult to come by in a cat's ordinary life. There is very little research on cat activity and cat disease analysis based on real-time data.

The 'roller coaster effect' in premolar extraction cases: clear aligners vs. straight-wire appliance.

Eur J Orthod

December 2024

Department of Orthodontics, State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases, National Center for Stomatology, National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan 610041, China.

Objectives: This study aimed to quantitatively investigate the intractable 'roller coaster effect' (RCE) that occurs in premolar extraction cases treated with clear aligner therapy (CAT) or straight-wire appliance (SWA).

Methods: Protrusion cases treated with extraction of bilateral first premolars were included. Pre- and post-treatment cephalograms were obtained to measure the bending angle of occlusal plane (BAOP), namely the occlusal intersection angle between the anterior occlusal plane (AOP) and posterior occlusal plane (POP).
