Popis: Introduction: Sepsis-induced cardiorenal syndrome (sepsis-induced CRS) is a devastating medical condition that is frequently associated with a high fatality rate. In this study, we aimed to develop an individualized nomogram that may help clinicians assess 30-day mortality risk in patients diagnosed with sepsis-induced CRS. Methods: A total of 340 patients with sepsis-induced CRS admitted from January 2015 to May 2019 in Shanghai Tongji Hospital were used as a training cohort to develop a nomogram prognostic model. The model was constructed using multivariable logistic analyses and was then externally validated by an independent cohort of 103 patients diagnosed with sepsis-induced CRS from June 2019 to December 2020. The prognostic ability of the nomogram was assessed through discrimination, calibration, and accuracy. Results: Five prognostic factors were determined and included in the nomogram: age, Sequential (sepsis-related) Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, vasopressors, baseline serum creatinine, and the rate of change in myoglobin. Our prognostic nomogram showed well-fitted calibration curves and yielded strong discrimination power with the area under the curve of 0.879 and 0.912 in model development and validation, respectively. In addition, the nomogram prognostic model exhibited an evidently higher predictive accuracy than the SOFA score. Conclusions: We developed a prognostic nomogram model for patients with sepsis-induced CRS and externally validated the model in another independent cohort. The nomogram exhibited greater strength in predicting 30-day mortality risk than the SOFA score, which may help clinicians estimate short-term prognosis and modulate therapeutic strategies.
