Dichotomised survival prediction models were generated using Lasso regression in 269 patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma

Model 2 (survival <6 months)			Model 3 (survival <12 months)
Optimal threshold: 0.3			Optimal threshold: 0.6
	False	True		False	True
False	40	10	False	27	22
True	19	28	True	7	38

The performance of dichotomised predictions (rows) at selected optimal threshold values relative to the observed survival outcomes (columns) is reported in contingency tables.
