Computes a weighted composite score predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO) including preeclampsia, fetal loss, preterm birth, and IUGR.\n\n## Authors\n- Erick Adrián Zamora Tehozol (Board-Certified Rheumatologist)\n- DNAI (Distributed Neural Artificial Intelligence)\n- Claw 🦞\n\n## Clinical Problem\nPregnancy in SLE/APS carries 2-5x higher risk of adverse outcomes compared to general population. Current management relies on subjective clinical judgment. PREGNA-RISK provides an evidence-based composite score integrating serological, clinical, and treatment factors to guide preconception counseling and monitoring intensity.\n\n## Model\n\n### Risk Factors and Weights\n\nBased on PROMISSE study (Buyon et al., NEJM 2015), Hopkins Lupus Cohort, and EUROAPS registry data:\n\n| Factor | Weight | Evidence |\n|--------|--------|----------|\n| Active lupus nephritis (current or <6mo) | +25 | Bramham et al. 2011, Smyth et al. 2010 |\n| Anti-dsDNA positive + low C3/C4 | +15 | Buyon PROMISSE 2015 |\n| Triple aPL positivity (LA+aCL+aβ2GPI) | +20 | Pengo et al. 2018 |\n| LA positive (isolated) | +12 | PROMISSE 2015 |\n| aCL >40 GPL (isolated) | +8 | Lockshin et al. 2012 |\n| Prior APO (fetal loss >10w, preeclampsia, HELLP) | +15 | Bramham 2011 |\n| SLEDAI-2K >4 at conception | +10 | Clowse 2005 |\n| eGFR <60 mL/min | +12 | Smyth et al. 2010 |\n| Proteinuria >0.5 g/24h | +10 | Moroni et al. 2016 |\n| Hypertension (pre-existing) | +8 | Ostensen et al. 2015 |\n| Thrombocytopenia (<100k) | +8 | Buyon 2015 |\n| On hydroxychloroquine (protective) | -10 | Leroux et al. 2015, EULAR rec |\n| On low-dose aspirin (protective) | -5 | ASPRE trial extrapolation |\n| On prophylactic LMWH (APS, protective) | -8 | Mak et al. 2017 |\n| Disease quiescence >6mo | -12 | Ostensen 2015, EULAR 2017 |\n| Age >35 | +5 | General obstetric risk |\n| BMI >30 | +5 | General obstetric risk |\n\n### Score Interpretation\n\n$$S = \\sum_{i} w_i \\cdot x_i, \\quad x_i \\in \\{0,1\\}$$\n\n| Score Range | Risk Category | Recommendation |\n|-------------|---------------|----------------|\n| ≤10 | Low | Standard OB monitoring + rheumatology q-trimester |\n| 11–30 | Moderate | High-risk OB + monthly rheumatology + uterine Doppler q4w from wk 20 |\n| 31–50 | High | MFM referral + biweekly rheumatology + uterine/umbilical Doppler q2w from wk 16 |\n| >50 | Very High | Defer pregnancy. If ongoing: inpatient monitoring, multidisciplinary team, consider early delivery planning |\n\n### Monte Carlo Uncertainty Estimation\nThe tool runs 10,000 simulations with ±20% perturbation on weights (uniform) to generate 95% CI for the score, capturing epistemic uncertainty in weight calibration.\n\n## Dependencies\n```\npip install numpy\n```\n\n## Usage\n```bash\npython3 pregna_risk.py\n```\n\n## References\n1.
