Currently, there are no effective bedside tools to predict the morbidity risk of these patients in general intensive care units (ICUs). The main objective of this study was to establish and validate a nomogram to predict the morbidity risk of patients with bone and bone marrow metastases.Methods: Data on patients with bone and bone marrow metastases were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC-III) database. The patients were divided into training and validation cohorts. The data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression methods. Factors significantly and independently prognostic of survival were used to construct a nomogram predicting 30-day morbidity. The nomogram was validated by various methods, including Harrell’s concordance index (C-index), area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), net reclassification index (NRI), and decision curve analysis (DCA).Results: The study included 610 patients in the training cohort and 262 in the validation cohort. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that temperature, SpO2, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, Oxford Acute Severity of Illness Score (OASIS), comorbidities with coagulopathy, white blood cell count, heart rate, and respiratory rate were independent predictors of patient survival. The resulting nomogram had good discriminative ability, as shown by high AUCs, and was well calibrated, as demonstrated by calibration curves. Improvements in NRI and IDI values suggested that the nomogram was superior to the SOFA scoring system. DCA curves revealed that the nomogram showed good value in clinical applications.Conclusion: This prognostic nomogram, based on demographic and laboratory parameters, was predictive of the 30-day morbidity rate in patients with secondary malignant neoplasms of the bone and bone marrow, suggesting its applicability in clinical practice.Keywords: secondary malignant neoplasm of bone and bone barrow, MIMIC-III database, prognosis, nomogram |
