Ann Rheum DisPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

The present study supports the external validity of the sJADAS10 in adults with SD.

Study context

Population
Adult patients with Still's disease followed in one reference centre
Participants
129 visits
Comparison
sJADAS10 vs 4 other disease activity measures for adult SD, against Rosina definitions as reference
Outcome
Agreement (weighted Cohen's kappa) between disease states by sJADAS10 and the reference; discriminative power by ROC curves
