Table 4.
All | Reclassified upwards n (proportion) | Reclassified downwards N (proportion) | NRI | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Number of cases | 126 | 88.96 (0.71) | 37.04 (0.29) | Among cases | 0.41 (0.25–0.57) |
Number of controls | 249 | 92.88 (0.37) | 153.88 (0.62) | Among controls | 0.25 (0.13–0.37) |
Overall NRI (CI) | 0.66 (0.46–0.86) |
Net reclassification index (NRI) of cases is greater than NRI of controls. This suggests that addition of the protein score helps increase predicted risk for those with cases more than it decreases predicted risk for controls.
