Development and external validation of a nomogram for predicting renal function based on preoperative data from in-hospital patients with simple renal cysts.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To develop and validate a nomogram for predicting renal dysfunction in patients with simple renal cysts (SRCs).

Methods

We performed a multivariable logistic regression analysis of an in-hospital retrospective cohort of patients with SRCs in the Urology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. For prognostic model development, 386 patients with SRCs were enrolled from January 2016 to December 2018. External validation was performed in 46 patients with SRCs from January 2019 to April 2019. The primary outcome was renal dysfunction.

Results

Patients were divided into normal or abnormal estimated glomerular filtration rate groups (293 vs. 93) based on the cut-off value of 90 mL/minute/1.73 m². Logistical regression analysis determined that age, haemoglobin, globulin, and creatinine might be associated with renal dysfunction, and a novel nomogram was established. Calibration curves showed that the true prediction rate was 77.42%, and decision curve analysis revealed that the nomogram was more effective with threshold probabilities ranging from 0.1 to 0.8. The area under the curves were 0.829, 0.752, and 0.888 in the overall training, internal, and external validation cohorts, respectively.

Conclusions

We established a nomogram to predict the probability of developing renal dysfunction in patients with SRCs.

Project description:Background: Patients with acute heart failure (AHF) who require continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) have a high risk of in-hospital mortality. It is clinically important to screen high-risk patients using a model or scoring system. This study aimed to develop and validate a simple-to-use nomogram consisting of independent prognostic variables for the prediction of in-hospital mortality in patients with AHF undergoing CRRT. Methods: We collected clinical data for 121 patients with a diagnosis of AHF who underwent CRRT in an AHF unit between September 2011 and August 2020 and from 105 patients in the medical information mart for intensive care III (MIMIC-III) database. The nomogram model was created using a visual processing logistic regression model and verified using the standard method. Results: Patient age, days after admission, lactic acid level, blood glucose concentration, and diastolic blood pressure were the significant prognostic factors in the logistic regression analyses and were included in our model (named D-GLAD) as predictors. The resulting model containing the above-mentioned five factors had good discrimination ability in both the training group (C-index, 0.829) and the validation group (C-index, 0.740). The calibration and clinical effectiveness showed the nomogram to be accurate for the prediction of in-hospital mortality in both the training and validation cohort when compared with other models. The in-hospital mortality rates in the low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups were 14.46, 40.74, and 71.91%, respectively. Conclusion: The nomogram allowed the optimal prediction of in-hospital mortality in adults with AHF undergoing CRRT. Using this simple-to-use model, the in-hospital mortality risk can be determined for an individual patient and could be useful for the early identification of high-risk patients.

Project description:BackgroundWith advances in high-throughput computational mining techniques, various quantitative predictive models that are based on ultrasound have been developed. However, the lack of reproducibility and interpretability have hampered clinical use. In this study, we aimed at developing and validating an interpretable and simple-to-use US nomogram that is based on quantitative morphometric features for the prediction of breast malignancy.MethodsSuccessive 917 patients with histologically confirmed breast lesions were included in this retrospective multicentric study and assigned to one training cohort and two external validation cohorts. Morphometric features were extracted from grayscale US images. After feature selection and validation of regression assumptions, a dynamic nomogram with a web-based calculator was developed. The performance of the nomogram was assessed with respect to calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness.ResultsThrough feature selection, three morphometric features were identified as being the most optimal for predicting malignancy, and all regression assumptions of the prediction model were met. Combining all these predictors, the nomogram demonstrated a good discriminative performance in the training cohort and in the two external validation cohorts with AUCs of 0.885, 0.907, and 0.927, respectively. In addition, calibration and decision curves analyses showed good calibration and clinical usefulness.ConclusionsBy incorporating US morphometric features, we constructed an interpretable and easy-to-use dynamic nomogram for quantifying the probability of breast malignancy. The developed nomogram has good generalization abilities, which may fit into clinical practice and serve as a potential tool to guide personalized treatment. Our findings show that quantitative morphometric features from different ultrasound machines and systems can be used as imaging surrogate biomarkers for the development of robust and reproducible quantitative ultrasound dynamic models in breast cancer research.
