Abstrakt: Clinical risk prediction models are being generated at an increasing rate. One important component is the identification of groups for whom such models might require recalibration to retain their desired performance. To this end, an update of the postbiopsy International IgA Nephropathy Prediction Tool for children has been published in this issue of Kidney International. We review the methods used and generalizability in practice, along with broader concepts in model development and application.
