The Mecholyl and noradrenalin tests applied with certain precautions are reliable indicators of this central autonomic balance, but for the sake of correlating autonomic and clinical states, and of studying the effect of certain therapeutic procedures on central autonomic reactions, additional tests seem to be desirable.

Many clinical tests were inconclusive, probably because it had been used as a surface antiseptic.

Medical evaluations for the disorder range from clinical screenings by a neurologist to extensive tests by a Speech-Language Pathologist.

It is accepted, however, that there is an " enormous " range of reliability findings in studies, and that validity is unclear because, given the lack of diagnostic laboratory or neuroimaging tests, standard clinical interviews are " inherently limited " and only a (" flawed ") " best estimate diagnosis " is possible even with full assessment of all data over time.

Evidence-based medicine attempts to express clinical benefits of tests and treatments using mathematical methods.

Examinations in the clinical neurophysiology field are not limited to tests conducted in a laboratory.

Because this method only tests for expansion of the CGG repeat, individuals with FXS due to missense mutations or deletions involving FMR1 will not be diagnosed using this test and should therefore undergo sequencing of the FMR1 gene if there is clinical suspicion of FXS.

Newer antidepressants are thought to have fewer and less severe side effects and are also thought to be less likely to result in injury or death if used in a suicide attempt, as the doses required for clinical treatment and potentially lethal overdose ( see therapeutic index ) are far wider in comparison.

The clinical signs of Rett syndrome typical form are perfectly identified ( e. g. see above ).

However, the term " spasticity " is still often used interchangeably with " Upper Motor Neuron Syndrome " in the clinical settings, and it is not unusual to see patients labeled as " spastic " who actually demonstrate not just spasticity alone, but also an array of upper motor neuron findings

Every year, more than 200, 000 individuals see their physicians concerning chemosensory problems, and many more taste disturbances are never reported .< ref name = NIDOCD > National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, " Taste Disorders ," 25 June 2008, 23 Oct. 2009 < http :// www. nidcd. nih. gov / health / smelltaste / taste. asp ></ ref > Due to the large number of persons affected by taste disorders, basic and clinical research are receiving support at different institutions and chemosensory research centers across the country.

Depending on the locality, health system organization, and sometimes at the patient's discretion, they may see another health care professional first, such as a pharmacist, a nurse ( such as in the United Kingdom ), a clinical officer ( such as in parts of Africa ), or an Ayurvedic or other traditional medicine professional ( such as in parts of Asia ).

The 1990s and 2000s also saw the publication of an increased number of clinical studies regarding the effectiveness and safety ( pro and con ) of low-carbohydrate diets ( see low-carbohydrate diet medical research ).

In Switzerland, various preparations of the drug are currently ( 2012 ) supplied by Fresenius-Kabi, a Swiss / German company ( see: http :// www. compendium. ch / mpro / mnr / 15328 / html / fr, for detailed official clinical information French ).

Examination, which is essentially looking for clinical signs, allows the medical practitioner to see if there is evidence in the patient's body to support their hypotheses about the disease that might be present.

This is both for the diagnosis of individual patients ( to see whether the patient's experience fits any pre-existing classification ), or for the creation of diagnostic systems ( such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders or International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems ) which define exactly which signs and symptoms should make up a diagnosis, and how experiences and behaviours should be grouped in particular diagnoses ( e. g. clinical depression, paraphrenia, paranoia, schizophrenia ).

Some clinical trials in the mid-to-late 1970s suggested that Gerovital H3 acts as a weak, competitive, reversible MAO inhibitor, and so may have some antidepressant value, but otherwise has negligible effect on disease ( see Clinical Trials, below ).
