Is the MDS-UPDRS a Good Screening Tool for Detecting Sleep Problems and Daytime Sleepiness in XXXX ?

@entity717 Society-sponsored Unified @entity191 Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) has separate items for measuring @entity25 (item 1.7) and @entity25 (1.8). The aim of our study was to evaluate the screening sensitivity and specificity of these items to the @entity1726 Sleep Scale 2nd version (PDSS-2) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). In this nationwide, cross-sectional study 460 @entity1726 @entity1 were enrolled. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were calculated between the individual items, domains, and the total score of PDSS-2 and item 1.7 of MDS-UPDRS. Similarly, the items and the total score of ESS were contrasted to item 1.8 of MDS-UPDRS. After developing generalized ordinal logistic regression models, the transformed and observed scores were compared by Lin's Concordance Correlation Coefficient. Only item 3 difficulties staying asleep and the "disturbed sleep" domain of PDSS-2 showed high correlation with " @entity25 " item 1.7 of the MDS-UPDRS. Total score of PDSS-2 had moderate correlation with this MDS-UPRDS item. The total score of ESS showed the strongest, but still moderate, correlation with " @entity25 " item 1.8 of MDS-UPDRS. As intended, the MDS-UPDRS serves as an effective screening tool for both @entity25 and @entity25 and identifies subjects whose disabilities need further investigation.
