The predictive performance of the GERAADA score was evaluated using calibration (observed\u2010to\u2010expected ratio and Hosmer\u2013Lemeshow test) and discrimination (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors of 30\u2010day mortality rate. Stratified analyses were conducted to assess performance across different risk categories.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">\n                      The cohort exhibited distinct characteristics, including younger age, longer intervals from onset to admission, and more extensive aortic arch procedures. The GERAADA score demonstrated good calibration (Hosmer\u2013Lemeshow test,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"no\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =0.461) and discriminative power (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve=0.863). Low\u2010risk patients (score &lt;20; 78.7% of cohort) had a mortality rate of 2.4%, while high\u2010risk patients (score \u226520) showed mortality rates aligning with predicted values (observed\u2010to\u2010expected ratio=1.2). Patients with preoperative critical conditions or end\u2010organ malperfusion exhibited a significantly higher mortality rate. Furthermore, we identified independent risk factors beyond the GERAADA scoring system, and these factors exhibited significant differences between high\u2010 and low\u2010risk patients. To address these findings, we developed a mortality risk assessment strategy based on GERAADA score, which further stratifies patients according to their specific clinical characteristics, serving as an optimization and expansion of the GERAADA score.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">This study validated the GERAADA score in China for predicting mortality risk in patients with acute type A aortic dissection, showing strong performance in discrimination and calibration. We also developed a mortality risk assessment strategy based on the GERAADA score, offering a practical framework for clinical use. The modular design allows for easy adaptation across centers, although further multicenter studies are needed to confirm its generalizability.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1161\/jaha.125.040838","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,29]],"date-time":"2025-08-29T11:18:04Z","timestamp":1756466284000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Validation of the GERAADA Score for Predicting 30\u2010Day Mortality Rate in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection: A Single\u2010Center Study in China"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Xin\u2010Fan","family":"Lin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Fujian Medical University Union Hospital","place":["Fuzhou, P.
