Both the clinicians' assessment of IQ scores and 'ratio IQ' scores calculation based on mental age as estimated by the care-givers showed agreement in classification of the children into different diagnostic categories of mental retardation as specified by ICD - 10 [ 17].
Overall, the discriminant analyses undertaken in this study suggested that an optimal test battery for APD would comprise a combination of cognitive, auditory, and report-based measures, with the report-based measure of choice for achieving the best classification of the children, being the ECLiPS (specifically the L/L/L and M&A factors).
The hip with highest MP determined the classification of the child.
Concordance of parent- and EHR-based classifications of the child as overweight/obese and obese was approximately 80% for all subgroups, with kappa statistics indicating moderate agreement.
The classification of the SGA children into subgroups according to the severity of growth restriction, as was done in the present study, appears to unveil distinctive differences, both between the subgroups and in comparison with the AGA control subjects, with regard to most of the parameters examined.
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) 2006 classification of child undernutrition, children with a Z-score below −2 Standard Deviations (SD) of the median for weight-for-height/length (WHZ) or (WLZ), height/length-for-age (HAZ) or (LAZ) and weight-for-age (WAZ) are classified as wasted, stunted and underweight respectively.
A job aid, known as the Sick Child Recording Form (SCRF), specifies the algorithms for assessment and classification of the sick child's signs and symptoms, and it guides CBHWs on selection of treatment with an antibiotic, antimalarial, and/or oral rehydration salt (ORS) and zinc tablet (Panel 1).
These registers provide information on the name, age, and sex of the child, village where the child lives, classification of the condition of the child, treatment given, and whether the child was referred.
Confirmatory factor analyses supported the current classification of these child anxiety disorders.
The classification of SGA children was more severely obstructed by the coding of both birthweight and gestational age in wide intervals.
These include the cross-sectional study design, lack of respective data for the rainy season, and the classification of control children.
