* Implied per-metric weight assumes all listed metrics in that category are present. If a metric or category is missing,
your script re-scales remaining weights proportionally.

What feeds each category (and the implied per-metric weight)
1) Bloods — 28% total
Metrics used in scoring (equal weight inside the category):
-
HbA1c (%)
-
Triglycerides (mmol/L)
-
Uric acid (mmol/L)
If all three are present, each is worth ~9.33% of the overall /100 (28 ÷ 3).
If only some are present, the 28% is split evenly across those present.Not used for the score (stored/printed only): Total cholesterol, Blood ketones, Haematocrit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Blood Pressure — 22% total
-
Uses SBP + DBP together to make a single BP sub-score (thresholded bands in your code).
Contribution to the overall /100 = 22% (when BP is present).
Not used for the score: Resting HR, Normal sinus rhythm (captured for notes only).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3) Body — 20% total
Metrics used in scoring (equal weight inside the category):
-
Body water %
-
Body fat %
-
Waist:Height ratio
If all three are present, each is worth ~6.67% of the overall /100 (20 ÷ 3).
If only some are present, the 20% is split evenly across those present.Not used for the score (stored/printed only): Weight, Skeletal muscle mass, Bone mass, Metabolic age (used in interpretation text, not in the score).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4) Strength — 15% total
-
Grip strength (average of L/R, sex-specific bands) → single sub-score worth 15%.
5) Pulmonary — 15% total
-
FVC % predicted → single sub-score worth 15%.
Not used for the score: FVC (litres).
