Implication

Systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrates superior diagnostic accuracy for an EAT-10 cutoff of 3 over 2 in screening dysphagia, indicating optimal clinical utility.

Key Points

To estimate and compare the diagnostic accuracy of Eating Assessment Tool-10 (EAT-10) cutoff values of 2 versus 3 for screening dysphagia.
Systematic search across PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, WANFANG, and VIP databases from May 2008 to March 2022.
Included 7 studies (2 high quality, 5 medium quality) encompassing 1,064 subjects across 7 countries.
Diagnostic reference standards were flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing or videofluoroscopic swallowing study.
An EAT-10 cutoff of 2 yielded a pooled sensitivity of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.82–0.93), specificity of 0.59 (95% CI, 0.39–0.77), diagnostic odds ratio of 11.49 (95% CI, 5.86–22.53), and AUC of 0.873 (95% CI, 0.82–0.93).
An EAT-10 cutoff of 3 yielded a pooled sensitivity of 0.85 (95% CI, 0.68–0.94), specificity of 0.82 (95% CI, 0.65–0.92), diagnostic odds ratio of 26.24 (95% CI, 5.06–135.95), and AUC of 0.903 (95% CI, 0.88–0.93).
