Development and validation of a prediction rule for recurrent vascular events based on a cohort study of patients with arterial disease: the SMART risk score

TL;DR: Patients at high risk for recurrent vascular events can be identified based on readily available clinical characteristics by the development and validation of models for prediction of recurrent vascular event risk based on vascular risk factors, imaging or both.

Predicting the chances of a live birth after one or more complete cycles of in vitro fertilisation: population based study of linked cycle data from 113 873 women

TL;DR: This study provides an individualised estimate of a couple’s cumulative chances of having a baby over a complete package of IVF both before treatment and after the first fresh embryo transfer.

Cardiovascular disease risk prediction equations in 400 000 primary care patients in New Zealand: a derivation and validation study

TL;DR: A nationally representative cohort in New Zealand was recruited to develop equations relevant to patients in contemporary primary care and the performance of these new equations to equations that are recommended in the USA were compared.

A systematic review finds prediction models for chronic kidney disease were poorly reported and often developed using inappropriate methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a systematic search of PubMed database to identify studies published up until September 2011 that describe the development of models combining two or more variables to predict the risk of prevalent or incident CKD or ESKD.

PICADAR: a diagnostic predictive tool for primary ciliary dyskinesia

TL;DR: PICADAR represents a simple diagnostic clinical prediction rule with good accuracy and validity, ready for testing in respiratory centres referring to PCD centres, and has seven predictive parameters: full-term gestation, neonatal chest symptoms, Neonatal intensive care admittance, chronic rhinitis, ear symptoms, situs inversus and congenital cardiac defect.
