This indicates incremental prognostic value of adding coronary stenosis to CACS over clinical risk factors.
This study did not reveal improvement to prognostic value by adding DNA methylation and microRNA to the analysis.
This study aimed to validate the prognostic value of adding p53 to Ki67 for characterizing luminal-type breast cancer.
Future studies with multiple centers and a larger sample size are needed to evaluate the prognostic value of adding AFP to the clinical scoring models currently used [ 7].
In addition, to determine the possible additional prognostic value of adding urinary 8-oxoGuo to established biomarkers and risk factors, we generated receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for all-cause mortality, and the areas under the curves (AUCs) were calculated.
We have shown, that in all analyzed tumors and, especially in the "probably benign" and "probably malignant" tumor groups, subjective ultrasound assessment has such high prognostic values that adding biomarker evaluation worsens diagnostic performance.
To assess how much prognostic value HRQoL can add to a clinical model, the model selection process was repeated with WHO PS, gender, age, clinical stage of disease and histological subtype forced into the model.
CT-proET-1 added prognostic value to the base model including NT-proBNP (p = 0.02), and NT-proBNP added predictive value to a model that includes the variables of the base model plus CT-proET-1 (p = 0.045) (Table 4).
These methods may also have added prognostic value in cancer staging pathways [7].
Although repeated prealbumin measurements in and of themselves were of no added prognostic value, falling prealbumin values identified by repeated measurements were additional independent predictors of death.
