Background: Prediction models for atrial fibrillation (AF) may enable earlier detection and guideline-directed treatment decisions. However, model bias may lead to inaccurate predictions and unintended consequences.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to validate, assess bias, and improve generalizability of "UNAFIED-10," a 2-year, 10-variable predictive model of undiagnosed AF in a national data set (originally developed using the Indiana Network for Patient Care regional data).

Population-level estimates in timeframes for reaching cervical cancer (CC) elimination (ie, <4 cases per 100,000 women) in the United States may mask potential disparities in achieving elimination among sub-populations. We used three independent Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network (CISNET) models to estimate differences in the time to CC elimination across seven strata of correlated screening and human papillomavirus vaccination uptake, based on national survey data. Compared to the average population, elimination was achieved ≥22 years earlier for the high-uptake strata and ≥27 years later for the most extreme low-uptake strata.

To validate Palestine's previously derived emergency department quality standards (EDQS) using an e-Delphi survey. A two-round e-Delphi survey validated the EDQS, developed in an earlier study through a literature review and consensus-building among Palestinian emergency medicine and healthcare quality experts. The study purposively sampled 53 emergency department and healthcare quality experts with over 5 years of experience.
