Development and psychometric evaluation of Data Collection Tools for Iranian integrated road traffic injury registry: Registrar-station Data Collection Tool
Archives of trauma research, 2019Co-Authors: Homayoun Sadeghi-bazargani, Soudabeh Marin, Faramarz Pourasghar, Alireza Moghisi, Bahram Samadirad, Mashyaneh Haddadi, Davoud Khorasani-zavarehAbstract:Background: Comprehensive and accurate Data are fundamentally needed for effective management of road traffic injuries (RTIs). Existing sources of RTI reports have a huge underestimation and inaccuracy at some levels. The aim of this study was to develop and validate the registrar-station Data Collection Tool as a part of the Iranian Integrated Road Traffic Injury Registry (IRTIR). Materials and Methods: This study was conducted in Tabriz University of Medical Sciences in 2018. A Data Collection Tool was developed to be used by the registrar for inpatient section of IRTIR by information retrieved from the literature review and road traffic experts' need assessment. The content validity of the preliminary Tool was assessed. The feasibility of the Tool was tested in two regional referral injury hospitals. Intra- and inter-rater reliability of the Tool was evaluated using the individual/absolute intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) and Kappa. Validity was revisited after 1 year of the pilot study. Results: The registrar-station Data Collection Tool of IRTIR included 53 items, in five categories. Content validity was approved (modified content validity index was 0.8-1 and content validity ratio was one for all items). ICC was >0.6 for all items, and kappa index ranged between 0.69 and 0.92. The nurse Data Collection Tool of IRTIR was applicable in the pilot phase. Conclusions: The Registrar-Station Data Collection Tool of IRTIR was confirmed as a valid and reliable Tool for inpatient traffic injuries as a part of the Iranian IRTIR.

Latent: A Flexible Data Collection Tool to Research Human Behavior in the Context of Web Navigation
IEEE Access, 2019Co-Authors: Catia Cepeda, Ricardo Tonet, Daniel Noronha Osorio, Hugo P. Silva, Edouard Battegay, Marcus Cheetham, Hugo GamboaAbstract:Internet usage has grown dramatically since the early years of its inception. The rich field of Data provided by internet users in interaction with digital media content can provide insight into web-based navigation behavior and underlying psychological dimensions. Human-computer interaction in the web is an underutilized source of Data for understanding human online behavior. While researchers and usability testing services do use these sources to analyze human behavior and user experience, access to the diverse range of other potentially useful Data available during web-based interaction for research is limited. In this paper, we propose a novel Tool in the form of a web browser extension, referred to as Latent, which can be used to simultaneously capture information from different sources while users interact with digital content. The Data acquisition capabilities of Latent makes it suitable for various research purposes, ranging from studies of usability to decision-making and personality. A particular advantage of Latent is that the method and control of Data acquisition is completely transparent to the user. We present the architecture of the web browser extension, describe the Data that can be acquired, and report on the residual impact of the Tool on the user's computer processing resources.

the stroke riskometer tm app validation of a Data Collection Tool and stroke risk predictor
International Journal of Stroke, 2015Co-Authors: Priya Parmar, Rita Krishnamurthi, Arfan M Ikram, Albert Hofman, Saira Saeed Mirza, Yury Varakin, Michael Kravchenko, M A Piradov, Amanda G Thrift, Bo NorrvingAbstract:BackgroundThe greatest potential to reduce the burden of stroke is by primary prevention of first-ever stroke, which constitutes three quarters of all stroke. In addition to population-wide prevention strategies (the mass' approach), the high risk' approach aims to identify individuals at risk of stroke and to modify their risk factors, and risk, accordingly. Current methods of assessing and modifying stroke risk are difficult to access and implement by the general population, amongst whom most future strokes will arise. To help reduce the burden of stroke on individuals and the population a new app, the Stroke Riskometer(TM), has been developed. We aim to explore the validity of the app for predicting the risk of stroke compared with current best methods. Methods752 stroke outcomes from a sample of 9501 individuals across three countries (New Zealand, Russia and the Netherlands) were utilized to investigate the performance of a novel stroke risk prediction Tool algorithm (Stroke Riskometer(TM)) compared with two established stroke risk score prediction algorithms (Framingham Stroke Risk Score [FSRS] and QStroke). We calculated the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves and area under the ROC curve (AUROC) with 95% confidence intervals, Harrels C-statistic and D-statistics for measure of discrimination, R-2 statistics to indicate level of variability accounted for by each prediction algorithm, the Hosmer-Lemeshow statistic for calibration, and the sensitivity and specificity of each algorithm. ResultsThe Stroke Riskometer(TM) performed well against the FSRS five-year AUROC for both males (FSRS=750% (95% CI 723%-776%), Stroke Riskometer(TM)=740(95% CI 713%-767%) and females [FSRS=703% (95% CI 679%-728%, Stroke Riskometer(TM)=715% (95% CI 690%-739%)], and better than QStroke [males - 597% (95% CI 573%-620%) and comparable to females=711% (95% CI 690%-731%)]. Discriminative ability of all algorithms was low (C-statistic ranging from 051-056, D-statistic ranging from 001-012). Hosmer-Lemeshow illustrated that all of the predicted risk scores were not well calibrated with the observed event Data (P<0006). ConclusionsThe Stroke Riskometer(TM) is comparable in performance for stroke prediction with FSRS and QStroke. All three algorithms performed equally poorly in predicting stroke events. The Stroke Riskometer(TM) will be continually developed and validated to address the need to improve the current stroke risk scoring systems to more accurately predict stroke, particularly by identifying robust ethnic/race ethnicity group and country specific risk factors.
