Comparison of Two Diagnostic Tests for the Detection of Temporomandibular Disorders

Description

Studies evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of the IAF and 3Q-TMD instruments based on the reference tests RDC and DC-TMD for the diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders.

Usage

Format

The data frame contains the following columns:

Author	character	study author(s)
Year	integer	year of the study
Title	character	title of the article
DOI	character	DOI for the article
TP	integer	number of true positives
FP	integer	number of false positives
FN	integer	number of false negatives
TN	integer	number of true negatives
Sensitivity	numeric	sensitivity
Specificity	numeric	specificity
PPV	numeric	positive predictive value
NPV	numeric	negative predictive value
Sample.size	integer	sample size
n1	integer	number of people with the disease
n2	integer	number of people without the disease
Prevalence	numeric	prevalence
AUC	numeric	area under the curve
SampleID	character	sample identifier

Details

Results of 10 studies that evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of the IAF and 3Q-TMD instruments based on the reference tests RDC and DC-TMD were included. The search period ranged from 1992 to April 2022 in six electronic databases. Two independent reviewers selected the studies. Risk of bias and applicability were assessed using the QUADAS 2 instrument.

Examples

### copy data into 'dat' and examine data
dat <- dat.rivera2025
dat

## Not run: 
suppressPackageStartupMessages(library(meta))

### sensitivity
round(dat$TP / dat$n1, 4)
report1 <- metaprop(TP, n1, data=dat, common=TRUE, random=TRUE, studlab=paste(Author, Year))
report1
summary(report1)
forest(report1)

### specificity
round(dat$TN / dat$n2, 4)
report2 <- metaprop(TN, n2, data=dat, common=TRUE, random=TRUE, studlab=paste(Author, Year))
summary(report2)
forest(report2)

### diagnostic odds ratio
report3 <- metabin(TP, n1, n2-TN, n2, data=dat, sm="OR",common=FALSE, random=TRUE,
                   studlab=paste(Author, Year), allstudies=TRUE)
