May support Rose questionnaire for angina detection in white men; confirms performance vs clinical judgment but leaves broader validation open.
Observational
Does the Rose questionnaire accurately diagnose angina pectoris compared to clinical judgment in white men?
Effect estimate: Sensitivity 81%, Specificity 97%
The Rose questionnaire is a highly specific (97%) and sensitive (81%) tool for detecting angina pectoris, with response variability likely reflecting the natural history of the disease rather than unreliability.
Siegfried Heyden (1971) conducted an observational in Angina pectoris. Rose questionnaire vs. Clinical judgment was evaluated on Diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) (Sensitivity 81%, Specificity 97%). The Rose questionnaire demonstrated a sensitivity of 81% and a specificity of 97% for detecting angina pectoris when compared to clinical judgment.
