ABSTRACT
-Limited attention has been paid to negative cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk markers despite their potential to improve medical decision-making. We compared thirteen negative risk markers using diagnostic likelihood ratios (DLR), which model the change in risk for an individual after the result of an additional test.
