简要总结
Aim:
To calculate LR+ and LR- for Natrum muriaticum for the rubric "Nose - Discharge, Watery"assessed using TNSS Scale.
Objectives:
1. To determine the Likelihood Ratio (LR) of Natrum Muriaticum for the rubric "Nose - Discharge, Watery" in cases of allergic rhinitis using TNSS scale
2. To observe and evaluate the changes before and after in Outcome in relation to impact on daily living (ORIDL) in patients receiving Natrum Muriaticum over 3 months of treatment.
LIKELIHOOD RATIO
The likelihood ratio is a statistical tool that aids physicians in refining their diagnostic skills across different diseases. Likelihood ratio is based on the concept of Bayes’ theorem which implies that when a symptom is more commonly found in the group responding positively to a specific medicine compared to the
rest of the population, the likelihood of a successful cure is higher.
It allows physicians to gauge the probability of a medicine’s efficacy based on the presence or absence of particular symptoms, applying the likelihood ratio at a symptom level to enhance prescription accuracy. Implementing likelihood ratios in homeopathy has the potential to enhance the current structure of materia medica and
repertory systems
