Nomogram for anemia risk prediction and validation in sepsis patients.

ABSTRACT: Anemia is a common sepsis complication with poor long-term outcomes, and accurate risk stratification tools are critical for clinical management. We conducted a multicenter retrospective observational study to develop and validate a nomogram for anemia in Chinese Han sepsis patients, enrolling 723 eligible patients from two tertiary hospitals. Lasso regression for parameter screening and binary logistic regression identified age, gender, APACHE Ⅱ scores, albumin (Alb), procalcitonin (PCT), and cholinesterase (ChE) as independent predictors. Based on multifactorial results of the binary logistic regression analysis in the training cohort, a nomogram was established to predict the anemia risk in sepsis patients. The nomogram exhibited excellent discriminative performance (AUC: 0.911 [95% CI,
