Systematic review of risk prediction tools for primary cutaneous melanoma outcomes and validation of sentinel lymph node positivity prediction in a UK tertiary cohort
This work highlights the complexity of predictive modelling and the rigorous validation process necessary to ensure accurate predictions. Our search highlights a tendency to focus on discriminative performance over calibration, and the possibility for inconsistent predictions when tools are applied to populations with differing characteristics.
