Disease relevance of KCNT2

• Participants were 89 traumatic brain-injury (TBI) patients assigned to malingering and nonmalingering groups on the basis of the Slick, Sherman, and Iversion (1999) criteria [1].

Psychiatry related information on KCNT2

• Presented are four patients claiming cognitive deficits after apparent occupational neurotoxic exposure who were diagnosed as malingering using the Slick, Sherman, and Iverson criteria [2].
• To preserve the fidelity of timing of action potentials that is required for sound localization, these neurons express several types of potassium channels, including the Kv3 and Kv1 families of voltage-dependent channels and the Slick and Slack sodium-dependent channels [3].
• Estimates were based on two methods: (1) clinical identification using the Slick, Sherman and Iverson criteria for malingered neurocognitive dysfunction (MND), and (2) statistical modeling based on patient performance on several individual psychometric indicators of malingering [4].

High impact information on KCNT2

• Forty-one of 161 TBI patients met Slick, Sherman, and Iverson (1999) criteria for Malingered Neurocognitive Dysfunction [5].
• Malingered neurocognitive dysfunction in neurotoxic exposure: an application of the Slick criteria [6].
• The Slick Tracy Home Team Program was the first intervention of Project Northland, a large 3 year community trial of the efficacy of a public health intervention for under age drinking [7].
• Cross-Cultural Adaptation and Evaluation of a Home-Based Program for Alcohol Use Prevention among Urban Youth: The "Slick Tracy Home Team Program" [8].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of KCNT2

• The control group was comprised of 37 patients without external incentive and who thus did not meet the Slick et al. criteria [9].
