A novel dynamic nomogram based on clinical features and laboratory indicators for diagnosis of post-neurosurgery intracranial infection.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Intracranial infection is a serious complication after neurosurgery. However, the early diagnosis of post-neurosurgical intracranial infection (PNICI) remains challenging. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical characteristics and common laboratory indicators in patients with and without intracranial infections after neurosurgery and construct a diagnostic model of PNICI and assess its diagnostic efficacy.

Methods

A total of 623 patients who underwent neurosurgery from January 2018 to October 2021 were enrolled and divided into a training set and a validation set. SPSS 22.0 software was used to compare the differences in basic information and laboratory examination results between the two groups to screen out valuable indicators. Subsequently, a nomogram
