Age-related macular degeneration, AMD; NRI, Net reclassification improvement.

NRI for progressors: .18; P < .0001

NRI for non-progressors: .009; P = 0.17

Overall NRI: .19; P < .0001

a

Probability of progression was defined as 1) very low (< 1% risk); 2) low (1% to < 10% risk); 3) medium (10% to < 30% risk); 4) high (30% to < 50% risk); 5) very high (≥ 50% risk).

b

Composite risk model including age, sex, race, education, BMI, smoking status, and baseline AMD grade.

c

Composite risk model including includes age, sex, race, education, BMI, smoking status, baseline AMD grade, and 13 loci determined to be associated with progression to advanced stages of AMD.
