Probability revision.

Abstract

This article examines the principles of probability revision and four different ways of obtaining post-test probabilities: the hypothetical cohort method, likelihood ratios and odds, the Nomogram, and precalculation. The authors then show where pre-test probabilities can be obtained, and then how to interpret multiple tests.

Significance of precordial T-wave increase during treadmill stress testing.

It appears that a T-wave amplitude increase of > or = 2.5 mm in lead V2 during a treadmill stress test may be specific (95%), even though this finding only occurs occasionally. Therefore, a T-wave amplitude increase during an exercise test may aid in the diagnosis of the few patients who develop this abnormality, especially if there is no ST depression, as has occurred during several recent exercise tests.
