Predicting occupational diseases

open access: yesOccupational and Environmental Medicine, 2009
Prediction research is relatively new in the occupational health field,1 2 3 4 although it is well established in clinical medicine.5 6 Prediction models are developed to estimate the individual probability of the presence (diagnostic model) or future occurrence (prognostic model) of an outcome (ie, disease). As an example from clinical practice, Wells
