Immunoglobulin M (IgM)-Anti-myelin-associated-glycoprotein(MAG) Peripheral Neuropathy Study

Rasch-built overall Disability Scale (RODS) is a disease-specific, patient-based, linearly weighted scale that captures activity and social participation limitations to detect activity limitations in patients with Immunogloblin M (IgM) anti-myelin-associated-glycoprotein peripheral neuropathy. For this study, the preliminary RODS is a 146 item patient-reported outcome instrument that assesses activity and social participation limitation. Rasch Measurement Methods examine the extent observed data (patients' actual responses to scale items) accord with predictions of those responses from a mathematical model.
