External validation of the prediction model of intradialytic hypotension: a multicenter prospective cohort study by Yuhe Xiang, Guoting Ma, Qin Yang, Min Cao, Wenbin Xu, Lin Li, Qian Yang

“…Model performance was assessed by: (1) Discrimination: Evaluated through the computation of the Area Under Curve (AUC) and its corresponding 95% confidence intervals. (2) Calibration: scrutinized through visual inspection of the calibration plot and utilization of the Brier score. (3) The incremental value of risk prediction and the utility of updating the model were gauged using NRI (Net Reclassification Improvement) and IDI (Integrated Discrimination Improvement). Decision Curve Analysis (DCA) was employed to evaluate the clinical benefit of updating the model.Results The final cohort comprised 2235 individuals undergoing maintenance hemodialysis, exhibiting a 14.6% occurrence rate of IDH. …”
