The predicted probability/nomogram score is a numeric value representing the prediction model score of the individual patient. The nomogram score can be used as a test parameter, and a positive test result can be defined as a score that is equal to or exceeds a specific cut-off value. A negative test result is defined as a score less than the cut-off value.

NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value.
