Diagnostic value of a logistic model of occupational lead poisoning using hematological parameters.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We investigated the predictive value of a logistic model utilizing hematological parameters in diagnosing occupational lead poisoning.

Methods

This retrospective study (September 2020-December 2022) included patients with occupational lead poisoning. Differences in hematological parameters were compared between individuals with occupational blood lead poisoning and healthy individuals. We used logistic regression analysis to develop a diagnostic prediction model for occupational blood lead poisoning. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and corresponding area under the ROC curve values were used to assess the diagnostic value of hematological parameters and logistic models.

Results

Compared with controls, several indicators were significantly highe
