Association between the platelet-albumin-bilirubin score and all-cause mortality in ICU-admitted heart failure patients: a retrospective cohort analysis and machine learning-based prognostic modeling.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The platelet-albumin-bilirubin (PALBI) score has shown prognostic value across multiple medical conditions; nevertheless, its effectiveness in forecasting prognoses among severely ill heart failure (HF) patients treated in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) has yet to be fully established. This study explores the relationship between PALBI scores at ICU admission and all-cause mortality in HF patients admitted to the ICU.

Methods

Drawing on records from the MIMIC-IV version 3.1 critical care database, we included ICU-admitted HF patients and calculated their PALBI scores at admission. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and log-rank tests were used to assess differences in overall mortality at 30 and 360 days across the PALBI tertile groups. Cox regression models based on the pro
