Review question

ElementPlanned (methods)Found (results)
PopulationIndividuals of all ages, sex and ethnicity, with caries defined at baseline and follow-up on an individual basis (PICOTS Participants)21 studies: children/adolescents (aged 2-19) for coronal caries and adults (aged 52-95) for root caries; sample sizes 21-1576 (n=21 studies)
InterventionA multivariable prediction model expressing caries increment as a function of at least 3 predictors, described in sufficient detail to allow calculation of model performance66 multivariable prediction models across 21 studies: model development in 11 studies (30 models: 23 coronal, 6 root, 1 coronal-and-root); external validation in 10 studies (36 models: 31 coronal, 5 root); >150 candidate predictors, 31 remaining in final coronal-caries models (n=66 models)
ComparisonAdditional prediction model(s) included within the study (comparator)Comparisons were within-study between alternative models (e.g. Cariogram variants with/without salivary predictors); no formal between-model statistical comparison performed
OutcomesCaries increment prediction (onset: sound to lesion; or progression), with model performance reported as calibration, discrimination (AUC) and classification measures (sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, LR+, LR-); AUC alone not acceptedModel performance recalculated by review authors as LR+ (range 0.78-10.3) and LR- (range 0.0-1.1); AUC reported in 6 development and 12 validation studies; only 5 models reached LR+>=5 (4 coronal, 1 root); calibration reported in 1 study
Study designsOral health care, no restriction to geographical locationOral health care across 11 countries; school, clinical and community settings
