Fig 2 Probability curve for 30-day readmission based on risk score in training cohort. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2017 103, 66-73DOI: (10.1016/j.athoracsur.2016.05.107) Copyright © 2017 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
Fig 3 Weighted linear regression demonstrating correlation between predicted 30-day readmission rates based on training cohort and actual 30-day readmission rates based on validation cohort for each risk score. Weights are depicted by size of bubble, which corresponds to number of patients with that particular risk score.
