If the patient is 'low risk' using the CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score (that is, 0 in males or 1 in females), no anticoagulant therapy is recommended. In males with 1 stroke risk factor (that is, a CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score=1), antithrombotic therapy with OAC may be considered, and people's values and preferences should be considered. [24]
The term (W-L) / 2 is the score above or below 0. ΣD / 4C is the expected score according to: 4C rating points equals 100%. [15] The USCF used a modification of this system to calculate ratings after individual games of correspondence chess, with a K = 32 and C = 200. [16]
[1] [2] Its usefulness was questioned in a 2015 review as it was not found to separate those who are at low from those who are at high risk of future problems. [3] A high score correctly predicted 87% of the people who did have a stroke in the following 7 days but also many people who did not have problems. [3]

It has however, been used extensively to monitor functional changes in individuals receiving in-patient rehabilitation, mainly in predicting the functional outcomes related to stroke. The Barthel index has been shown to have portability and has been used in 16 major diagnostic conditions as well as different clinical settings (e.g., nursing ...
Microsoft Excel provides two ranking functions, the Rank.EQ function which assigns competition ranks ("1224") and the Rank.AVG function which assigns fractional ranks ("1 2.5 2.5 4"). The functions have the order argument, [1] which is by default is set to descending, i.e. the largest number will have a rank 1. This is generally uncommon for ...
Then, nutrition information was pulled from the Department of Agriculture FoodData Central and Nutritionix to calculate the number of calories, protein, fiber, sugar, and fat (saturated and ...
The SOFA scoring system is useful in predicting the clinical outcomes of critically ill patients. [8] According to an observational study at an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in Belgium, the mortality rate is at least 50% when the score is increased, regardless of initial score, in the first 96 hours of admission, 27% to 35% if the score remains unchanged, and less than 27% if the score is reduced.
