Abstract EN
To develop the logistic and the probit models to analyse electromyographic (EMG) equivalent uniform voltage- (EUV-) response for the tenderness of tennis elbow.
In total, 78 hands from 39 subjects were enrolled.
In this study, surface EMG (sEMG) signal is obtained by an innovative device with electrodes over forearm region.
The analytical endpoint was defined as Visual Analog Score (VAS) 3+ tenderness of tennis elbow.
The logistic and the probit diseased probability (DP) models were established for the VAS score and EMG absolute voltage-time histograms (AVTH).
TV50 is the threshold equivalent uniform voltage predicting a 50% risk of disease.
Twenty-one out of 78 samples (27%) developed VAS 3+ tenderness of tennis elbow reported by the subject and confirmed by the physician.
The fitted DP parameters were TV50 = 153.0 mV (CI: 136.3–169.7 mV), γ 50 = 0.84 (CI: 0.78–0.90) and TV50 = 155.6 mV (CI: 138.9–172.4 mV), m = 0.54 (CI: 0.49–0.59) for logistic and probit models, respectively.
When the EUV ≥ 153 mV, the DP of the patient is greater than 50% and vice versa.
The logistic and the probit models are valuable tools to predict the DP of VAS 3+ tenderness of tennis elbow.
