In recent years, the potential value of clinical big data have been gradually realized, and disease prediction models have begun to become a hot spot in clinical research. Predictive models of different types of diseases play an increasingly important role in individual risk assessment. However, due to the lack of reporting specifications for studies on disease prediction model, the structure and quality of reports are mostly mixed. In 2015, BMJ published a paper entitled "Transparent reporting of a multivariable prediction model for individual prognosis or diagnosis (TRIPOD): the TRIPOD statement" stated that there should be a uniform study of predictive models for disease diagnosis and prognosis. This article interprets key contents of the statement to promote research and understanding of the report specification.
