Fan et al reported nomograms for predicting the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and calcifications. The authors are from Chengde Medical University in China.
Patient selection: adult with suspected coronary artery disease
Parameters:
(1) sex
(2) hypertension
(3) diabetes
(4) dyslipidemia
(5) ischemic stroke
(6) Advanced Lung Cancer Inflammation Index (ALI)

total score =
= SUM(points for all of the parameters)
Interpretation:
• minimum score: 0
• maximum score: 450.5
value of X =
= (0.01098 * (score)) - 1.236
probability of CAD =
= 1 / (1 + EXP((-1) * (score)))
Performance:
• The area under the ROC curve was 0.74.
