Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) in screening dysphagia by using 2 and 3 as cut-off value with systematic review. Methods A retrieval on the diagnostic value of EAT-10 in dysphagia was done all through PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, WANFANG and VIP databases (from January 2008 to November 2016)."Quality As-sessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies" (QUADAS) was used to appraise included papers. Meta-Disc1.4 software was used to analyze heterogeneity and the combined effect of the data. Results Three papers were included and 394 subjects were included in the review. By using 2 and 3 as the cut-off value of EAT-10, the value of the weighted sensitivity was 0.84 [95%CI (0.79, 0.88)] and 0.77 [95%CI(0.71, 0.82)], the specificity was 0.64[95%CI (0.55, 0.72)] and 0.74 [95%CI(0.66, 0.81)],and the area under the receiver-operating-characteris-tic-curve (AUC-ROC) was 0.8621 and 0.8343, which illustrated the diagnostic accuracy of EAT-10 on dysphagia at the medium level. Conclusion The diagnostic ability of EAT-10 is good, but the sensitivity and specificity are different by using 2 and 3 as the cut-off value. The subjects should consider the specific clinical situation to determine the best cut-off value.
