The Diabetes Risk Score

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS — A random population sample of 35to 64-year-old men and women with no antidiabetic drug treatment at baseline were followed for 10 years. New cases of drug-treated type 2 diabetes were ascertained from the National Drug Registry. Multivariate logistic regression model coefficients were used to assign each variable category a score. The Diabetes Risk Score was compos...

The ABC (age, biomarkers, clinical history) stroke risk score: a biomarker-based risk score for predicting stroke in atrial fibrillation

AIMS Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of stroke, which is currently estimated by clinical characteristics. The cardiac biomarkers N-terminal fragment B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponin high-sensitivity (cTn-hs) are independently associated with risk of stroke in AF. Our objective was to develop and validate a new biomarker-based risk score t...

A clinical risk score for prediction of stent thrombosis.

The aim was to develop a clinically useful patient risk score predictive for stent thrombosis (ST). Using readily available baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics, a Cox proportional hazards multivariate model was used to identify significant (p <0.10) predictors of ST through 1 year in 2,487 patients receiving a TAXUS Express (Boston Scientific Corp., Natick, Massachusetts) drug-el...
