/ˈkʌtˌpɔɪnt/ · noun
(topology) A point of a connected space whose removal causes the resulting space to be disconnected..
Every point of a line is a cutpoint, but no point of a circle is a cutpoint.
In 2007 the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) proposed single blood pressure (BP) cutpoints (systolic: ≥130 mm Hg and diastolic: ≥85 mm Hg) for the diagnosis of high blood pressure (HBP) in adolescents. Before this proposal, HBP had been defined as BP at or above the 95th percentile for age, sex, and height percentile (reference standard). In this study, we evaluated the risk for misclassification when using the IDF single-cutpoints criteria.
