The classification of patients by the CRM was compared to that by the GRM. NRI = (P (Up|Positive)-P (Down|Positive)]-[ P (Up|Negative)-P (Down|Negative)). A positive patient was defined as a patient who died in hospital. NRI: net reclassification improvement; GRM: GRACE risk model; CRM: CAMI-NSTEMI risk model.
