CTCAE is widely accepted throughout the oncology community as the standard classification and severity grading scale for adverse events in cancer therapy clinical trials and other oncology settings.
Despite these methodological issues, the observed changes in pattern classification and severity of IONDT visual fields were remarkably consistent over time [ 25], suggesting that it is unlikely that the computer system algorithms had substantial classification errors.
We modified EQUIP study criteria 3 for error categorisation and severity classification by adding or clarifying severity criteria for all error categories, and by grouping errors into 10 distinct areas according to stage of the prescribing process (see below and table 2).
The language profile was defined in terms of language subgroups, according to the two previously defined classifications: comprehensiveness and severity.
There were difficulties assessing NYHA class and other symptoms and signs in this sedentary population; the lack of correlation between NYHA classification and LVSD severity, and between LVSD and HFpEF raises questions about its utility in the study population.
Neurologic condition on admission was evaluated according to the Hunt and Kosnik classification [ 10], and severity of SAH was assessed according to Fisher's classification [ 11].
This included age, gender, pre-morbid living conditions, premorbid disability level (modified Rankin Scale score) [ 28], stroke side, stroke type (Oxfordshire classification) [ 33], and severity (NIHSS) [ 34].
