摘要

嗅觉测试必须在文化上与目标人群相适应。这项研究旨在验证嗅探棒测试在英国的效果。方法在某三级嗅觉功能障碍门诊进行队列研究。第一阶段,健康的志愿者接受了最初的德国识别测试,然后是英国的改编版本。2期嗅觉功能障碍患者进行了包括新描述符的扩展嗅觉测试(TDI)。结果测量包括识别测试(第一阶段)的差异、重测信度和治疗前后得分的差异。结果共纳入健康志愿者31名,男性31名,患者87名。第一阶段平均识别分数在描述符适应后略有改善(13.77和14.57,p = 0.0029)。第2-41期未治疗的参与者在两个区间的平均识别评分为7.31 (95% CI: - 1.15至1.15,p > 0.999)。治疗参与者的平均变化为1.88(0.70至3.06,p = 0.0224)。治疗组与未治疗组TDI评分差异为6.63 (2.48 ~ 10.79,p = 0.0023)。未治疗患者的TDI评分(ICC = 0.82, 95% CI 0.57 ~ 0.93)和识别评分(ICC = 0.80, 0.52 ~ 0.93)的类内相关系数均较高;ci提示信度为中等至优秀。结论本研究证实了嗅探棒试验鉴别成分描述符适应性在区分健康和疾病方面的有效性。嗅探棒测试现在可以可靠地用于英国患者的临床评估,仅修改描述符。

Cultural Adaptation and Validity of the Sniffin’ Sticks Psychophysical Test for the UK Setting

Introduction

Olfactory testing must be culturally adapted to be relevant to the target population. This study aimed to validate the Sniffin’ Sticks test for the UK setting.

Methods

A cohort study was conducted at a tertiary olfactory dysfunction clinic. Phase 1—healthy volunteers underwent the original German identification test followed by a UK adapted version. Phase 2—patients with olfactory dysfunction underwent the extended smell test (TDI) including the new descriptors. Outcome measures included differences in identification test (phase 1), retest reliability and differences in scores before and after treatment.

Results

A total of 31 healthy volunteers and 87 patients were recruited (6 and 31 males, respectively). Phase 1—mean identification scores showed a small improvement after descriptor adaptations (13.77 and 14.57, p = 0.0029). Phase 2—41 untreated participants had a mean identification score of 7.31 at both intervals (95% CI: − 1.15 to 1.15, p > 0.999). The mean change in treated participants was 1.88 (0.70 to 3.06, p = 0.0224). TDI score difference between treated and untreated groups was 6.63 (2.48 to 10.79, p = 0.0023). The intraclass correlation coefficient for untreated patients was high for both TDI score (ICC = 0.82, 95% CI 0.57 to 0.93) and identification score (ICC = 0.80, 0.52 to 0.93); CIs suggest the reliability is moderate to excellent.

Conclusions

This study confirms the validity of the descriptor adaptations of the identification component of the Sniffin’ Sticks test to distinguish between health and disease.

Implications

The Sniffin’ Sticks test can now reliably be used for clinical assessment of British patients, modifying only the descriptors.
