Postnatal Serum Insulin-Like Growth Factor I Deficiency Is Associated With Retinopathy of Prematurity and Other Complications of Premature Birth
Ann Hellström,Eva Engström,Anna-Lena Hård,Kerstin Albertsson-Wikland,Björn Carlsson,Aimon Niklasson,Chatarina Löfqvist,Elisabeth Svensson,Sture Holm,Uwe Ewald,Gerd Holmström,Lois E.H. Smith +11 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that persistent low serum concentrations of IGF-I after premature birth are associated with later development of ROP and other complications of prematurity and is at least as strong a determinant of risk for ROP as postmenstrual age at birth and birth weight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines to statistical evaluation of data from rating scales and questionnaires.
TL;DR: Questionnaires and rating scales are commonly used to measure qualitative variables, such as feelings, attitudes and many other behavioural and health-related variables, and statistical methods applicable to data from rating scales differ completely from the traditional methods for quantitative variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
IGF-I is critical for normal vascularization of the human retina.
Ann Hellström,Björn Carlsson,Aimon Niklasson,Karin Segnestam,Margaret C. S. Boguszewski,Luiz Alkimin de Lacerda,Martin O. Savage,Elisabeth Svensson,Lois E.H. Smith,Dov Weinberger,Kerstin Albertsson Wikland,Zvi Laron +11 more
TL;DR: This is the first study to provide genetic evidence for a role of the GH and IGF-I system in retinal vascularization in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ordinal invariant measures for individual and group changes in ordered categorical data
TL;DR: A rank-invariant non-parametric method of analysis is presented that is valid regardless of the number of response categories and related to the joint distribution of paired observations that makes it possible to measure separately the individual order-preserved categorical changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lack of interchangeability between visual analogue and verbal rating pain scales: a cross sectional description of pain etiology groups.
Iréne Lund,Thomas Lundeberg,Louise Sandberg,Cecilia Norrbrink Budh,Jan Kowalski,Elisabeth Svensson +5 more
TL;DR: The pain intensity assessments on VAS and VRS are not interchangeable and a risk to over or under estimate the patient's perceived pain when interpreting condensed VAS data is indicated, indicating that the scales have non-linear properties and that the two scales probably have different interpretation.
