This work makes me think of @aaronjfisher.bsky.social’s paper identifying minimal sufficient symptom sets necessary for diagnosis, clinical distress, & impairment. And something he said that’s stuck with me [paraphrase] “polythetic criteria are a feature not a bug” pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41051852/
Establishing minimally sufficient conditions reduces the complexity of symptom presentations in Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders internalizing disorders - PubMed
This article contends that many of the chief complaints about the <i>Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders</i> can be obviated by a set-theoretic, combinatorial approach. Arbitrary cutoffs, polythetic criteria, and category heterogeneity can be avoided by using a data-driven approach …

I may be misinterpreting this method but if edges represent rate of symptom change over time, and some increase, that might not be desirable in the case of an intervention? Or perhaps greater absolute values would indicate a network amenable to change vs a more persistent profile. Neat study!

Cool application of Hudson’s EII! I know it wasn’t the point of this paper, but it made me curious about subgroup membership and outcomes, eg did people respond differently to CBT by cluster membership? Or could dynEGA potentially be used in measurement based care
