This study demonstrated the applicability of various SI models for screening and identification of patients with NP-C for further clinical evaluation. Although NP-C is rare and the patient population is limited, this study was conducted in a real-world setting and confirms SI models as useful screening tools that facilitate identification of patients with NP-C earlier in their disease course.
