Figure 3 The observed and corresponding predicted procedural complications in the validation-set with the proposed risk score. The x-axis represents the risk score in the validation-set. The y-axis represents the complication rate. The solid line demonstrates the predicted procedural complications derived from the risk score. The bars represent observed procedural complications in the validation-set. Three patients had a score > 19; all three were free of complications.
