ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of cognitive frailty in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and to establish an artificial neural network (ANN) model.DesignA cross-sectional design.SettingTwo tertiary hospitals in southern China.Participants425 elderly patients aged ≥60 years with CKD.MethodsData were collected via questionnaire investigation, anthropometric measurements, laboratory tests and electronic medical records. The 425 samples were randomly divided into a training set, test set and validation set at a ratio of 5:3:2. Variables were screened by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, then an ANN model was constructed. The accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the ROC curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the predictive power of the model.ResultsBarthel Index (BI) score, albumin, education level, 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale score and Social Support Rating Scale score were the factors influencing the occurrence of cognitive frailty (pConclusionThe ANN model constructed in this study has good predictive ability, and can provide a reference tool for clinical nursing staff in the early prediction of cognitive frailty in a high-risk population. |
