The DSQ allows for a well-defined\u00a0characterization of a patient&#8217;s illness and allows scientists and\u00a0clinicians to improve diagnostic reliability when employing case<br \/>\ndefinitions of ME and CFS.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The development of the DePaul symptom questionnaire: Original,\u00a0expanded, brief and pediatric versions, by\u00a0Leonard A Jason, Madison Sunnquist in\u00a0Frontiers in Pediatrics, 6 Nov 2018 One of the key requirements of a reliable case definition is the use of\u00a0standardized procedures for assessing &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/the-development-of-the-depaul-symptom-questionnaire-original-expanded-brief-pediatric-versions\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[898,603,4059,3064,258,2241],"class_list":["post-18738","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-case-definitions","tag-depaul-symptom-questionnaire","tag-diagnostic-accuracy","tag-madison-l-sunnquist","tag-paediatric-me","tag-prof-leonard-jason"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5qkYK-4Se","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18738"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18738\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18745,"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18738\/revisions\/18745"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18738"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
