What it computes
Compute the Tosetto 2012 DASH score (abnormal D-dimer after stopping anticoagulation, age <50, male sex, hormone use at the initial VTE in women) and return the published recurrence band.
When to use
When an agent needs the published Tosetto 2012 DASH arithmetic after unprovoked VTE and must not invent a duration-of-anticoagulation decision.
When not to use
- Not a medical device. magent does not diagnose recurrent VTE or assay D-dimer.
- Not a duration-of-anticoagulation order and not a stop-or-continue anticoagulation protocol. Recurrence bands are published Tosetto 2012 groups, not treatment instructions.
- Age scores only when <50 years (Tosetto 2012 abstract). Age 50 does not score.
- Hormone use at the initial VTE scores -2 in women only. Male with hormone_use=true is rejected.
- Abnormal D-dimer is after stopping anticoagulation as published. Percents are not returned in the JSON body.
Formula
DASH = 2*abnormal_d_dimer + 1*(age<50) + 1*male + (-2)*hormone_use(female only); max 4; recurrence_band <=1 / 2 / >=3

Worked example
Age 60 female, no D-dimer, no hormone use
Given:
abnormal_d_dimer=falseage=60hormone_use=falsesex=female
- abnormal_d_dimer false → 0; age 60 is not <50 → 0; female → 0; hormone_use false → 0
- Score = 0 (max 4); recurrence_band <=1
Age 40 male with abnormal D-dimer
Given:
abnormal_d_dimer=trueage=40hormone_use=falsesex=male
- abnormal_d_dimer → 2; age 40 < 50 → 1; male → 1; hormone_use false → 0
- Score = 4 (max 4); recurrence_band >=3

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
age |
integer | required | Age in years (18-120). Scores 1 when age is <50 (Tosetto 2012). Age 50 does not score. |
sex |
string | required · female, male | female or male. Male scores 1. Hormone use applies only when female. |
abnormal_d_dimer |
boolean | required | Abnormal D-dimer after stopping anticoagulation (Tosetto 2012). true or false. 2 points if true. |
hormone_use |
boolean | required | Hormone use at the initial VTE. Required. Scores -2 only when sex is female and true. Must be false when sex is male. |
Bulk (POST)
POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.
- 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
- POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
- The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
- HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
- Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
- x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

Payment
Unpaid requests return HTTP 402 even if query parameters or POST items are missing or invalid, so CDP and agents can index the path. After a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid params return HTTP 400 JSON before settlement. magent does not charge. Fix the params, then request a new 402 quote for that complete URL. Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) are valid paid 200s. Unpaid valid requests return HTTP 402 with a base64
PAYMENT-REQUIRED
header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Full handshake
and shared payment errors: Payments.
Stdio MCP: /docs/mcp.
Guarantees
- HTTP 402 is unpaid, including a missing query. After PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged.
- exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
- HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
- Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
- Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
