  Figure 2.. Occurrence rate of rapid death, for patients stratified into low, medium, or high-risk categories. Plots of the occurrence rate of rapid death as a function of time, for patients with probability scores in a low-risk (probability score < 0.38), medium-risk (038 < probability score < 0.67), or high-risk category (probability score > 0.67) at each time point, for the derivation (A) and validation (B) cohorts, using the recalibrated combined model. The shaded areas indicate the 95% CI of the occurrence rate for each risk group at each time point. The histograms below each plot show the proportion of patients that fall in each risk category at each time point.
