Assessing importance of dietary data in anticoagulation treatment.
This paper describes the outcome of including information on dietary intake in the attempt to predict International Normalized Ratio (INR) values. An already published model has been extended and is now tested with the additional dietary data and without it. When predicting INR values seven days into the future, the new proposed model outperforms the existing one. It is concluded that adding information on dietary intake improves the accuracy of INR predictions.
