Prognostic value of a cell cycle progression signature for prostate cancer death in a conservatively managed needle biopsy cohort. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The natural history of prostate cancer is highly variable and it is difficult to predict. We showed previously that a cell cycle progression (CCP) score was a robust predictor of outcome in a conservatively managed cohort diagnosed by ...

Prognostic score in acute meningococcemia
A prognostic score for children with acute meningococcemia is proposed. We reviewed 176 consecutive patients with acute meningococcemia with ten fatalities admitted to our pediatric ICU in the last 3 yr. The score was obtained from patients in shock, using a stepwise linear discriminant analysis of 18 clinical and laboratory variables on admission ...

Prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Validation and ranking of established staging-systems in a large western HCC-cohort. [PDF]
HCC is diagnosed in approximately half a million people per year, worldwide. Staging is a more complex issue than in most other cancer entities and, mainly due to unique geographic characteristics of the disease, no universally accepted staging system ...

Assessing calibration of prognostic risk scores [PDF]
Current methods used to assess calibration are limited, particularly in the assessment of prognostic models. Methods for testing and visualizing calibration (e.g. the Hosmer–Lemeshow test and calibration slope) have been well thought out in the binary regression setting.
