Legend: MCRS = Mayo clinic risk score; TSPC: tree-structured prognostic classification.
Sum score for very low (MCRS = 0–5), low (MCRS = 6–8), moderate (MCRS = 9–11), high (MCRS = 12–14), and very high (MCRS ≥15).
Sum score for very low (0–5), low (6–10), moderate (11-12), high (13–15) and very high (≥16).
§Very low = (no heart failure and <70 years and without renal failure), low = (no heart failure and ≥ 70 years and male), moderate = (no heart failure and ≥70 years and female), high = (no heart failure and <70 years and with renal failure), and very high = (heart failure present).
