Predicting the natural history of metabolic syndrome with a Markov-system dynamic model: a novel approach

Abstract Background Markov system dynamic (MSD) model has rarely been used in medical studies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of MSD model in prediction of metabolic syndrome (MetS) natural history. Methods Data gathered by Tehran Lipid & Glucose Study (TLGS) over a 16-yea...
