Patients in the external validation cohort were divided into estimated risk deciles in accordance with the prediction probability yielded by the four models and then grouped into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups with thresholds reflecting clinically meaningful gradients in risk from one group to the next. The mean prediction probability and observed probability were calculated for each group.
