xylazine and Sensitivity and Specificity

xylazine has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 7 studies

Xylazine: An adrenergic alpha-2 agonist used as a sedative, analgesic and centrally acting muscle relaxant in VETERINARY MEDICINE.
xylazine : A methyl benzene that is 1,3-dimethylbenzene which is substituted by a 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-2-ylnitrilo group at position 2. It is an alpha2 adrenergic receptor agonist and frequently used in veterinary medicine as an emetic and sedative with analgesic and muscle relaxant properties.

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Xylazine is an α2 -adrenoceptor agonist and it is widely used in veterinary anesthesia in combination with ketamine."1.39Characterization of xylazine metabolism in rat liver microsomes using liquid chromatography-hybrid triple quadrupole-linear ion trap-mass spectrometry. ( Beaudry, F; Lavoie, DS; Pailleux, F; Vachon, P, 2013)
"Decreased pain was correlated with increased motor activity for morphine and amphetamine, and with decreased activity for xylazine and acepromazine; dipyrone and indomethacin did not alter activity levels."1.31The formalin test in the mouse: a parametric analysis of scoring properties.
