External Validation of the CARE-BMT and Modified CARE-BMT Scores for Cardiac Event Prediction After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

A refined heart disease risk tool for transplant patients now includes transplant-specific factors, improving prediction accuracy after bone marrow transplant.

This diagnostic or model validation study examined External Validation of the CARE-BMT and Modified CARE-BMT Scores for Cardiac Event Prediction After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia. The PubMed abstract reports that Incorporating standard-dose PTCy improved risk stratification, supporting inclusion of transplant-specific variables in cardiovascular risk prediction after allo-HCT.
