Medical prognostic (prediction) models (MPM) are essential in modern healthcare. They determine health and disease risks and are created to improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes. All MPMs fall into two categories.

In the ideal world prognostication or predicting disease course in any chronic condition would allow the clinician to anticipate disease behaviour, providing crucial information for the patient and data regarding best use of resources. Prognostication also allows an understanding of likely response to treatment and the risk of adverse effects of a ...

Heart Failure Prognostic Models [PDF]
Despite the remarkable therapeutic advances in the treatment of chronic heart failure, it remains a condition marked by progressive deterioration and premature mortality. Our treatments slow the rate of descent, and some reset the survival curve upward, but decline is inevitable.

Diagnostic and prognostic prediction models [PDF]
Risk prediction models can be used to estimate the probability of either having (diagnostic model) or developing a particular disease or outcome (prognostic model). In clinical practice, these models are used to inform patients and guide therapeutic management. Examples from the field of venous thrombo-embolism (VTE) include the Wells rule for patients

Prognostic models for alcoholic hepatitis [PDF]
Alcoholic hepatitis (AH) is caused by acute inflammation of the liver in patients that consume excessive amounts of alcohol, usually in a background of cirrhosis. AH can range from mild to severe, life threatening disease with a high rate of short and long-term mortality. Prognostic models have been used to estimate mortality in order to identify those

The Royal Free Hospital score: a calibrated prognostic model for patients with cirrhosis admitted to intensive care unit. Comparison with current models and CLIF-SOFA score [PDF]
Prognosis for patients with cirrhosis admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) is poor. ICU prognostic models are more accurate than liver-specific models.

Prognostic value of routine laboratory variables in prediction of breast cancer recurrence. [PDF]
The prognostic value of routine laboratory variables in breast cancer has been largely overlooked. Based on laboratory tests commonly performed in clinical practice, we aimed to develop a new model to predict disease free survival (DFS) after surgical ...
