Autoimmune Disorder Risk Calculator

What is the Autoimmune Disorder Risk Estimator?

The Autoimmune Disorder Risk Estimator is a tool that evaluates risk factors contributing to autoimmune disorders, including gender, age, ANA titer levels, platelet count, presence of additional autoantibodies, and relevant ICD codes. It provides a structured way to assess the likelihood of autoimmune conditions and monitor related health concerns.

Why Use the Autoimmune Disorder Risk Estimator?

Autoimmune disorders can be complex and difficult to detect early. This tool helps identify potential risks by analyzing key medical data points and symptom indicators. It supports individuals and healthcare providers in making informed decisions about further evaluations and management plans.

How is Risk Calculated?

The estimator assigns weights to different factors, summing them up to produce a total risk score:

• Gender: +2 points for females, 0 points for males
• Age: +1 point for ≤40 years, 0 points for >40 years
• ANA Titer: +3 points for ≥1:160, +1 point for 1:80
• Platelet Count: +2 points for <150 (thrombocytopenia), 0 points for ≥150
• Additional Autoantibodies: +3 points for presence, 0 points for absence
• Relevant ICD Codes: +2 points per code

The total risk score is interpreted as:

• Low Risk: 0–4 points
• Moderate Risk: 5–9 points
• High Risk: 10+ points

Example Calculation

Inputs:
  Gender: Male
  Age: 24
  ANA Titer: 1:160 (+3 pts)
  Platelet Count: 237 (+0 pts)
  Additional Autoantibodies: No (+0 pts)
  Relevant ICD Codes: 0 (+0 pts)

Calculation:
  Total Risk Score = 0 + 1 + 3 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 4

Result:
  Risk Level = Low Risk
