Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To analyze the risk factors for severe adenovirus pneumonia(AP)in children and construct a nomogram.METHODS A total of 108 children with AP admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases at Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from Nov.2023 to Apr.2024 were selected and divided into a severe group(n=38)and a non-severe group(n=70)based on disease severity.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for severe AP in children.A nomogram was developed by R software,and its per-formance was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test.RESULTS Anemia(OR=4.370,95%CI:1.370-13.941,P=0.013),congenital heart disease(OR=4.036,95%CI:1.277-12.754,P=0.017),multiple infection(OR=4.984,95%CI:1.546-16.069,P=0.007)and pulmonary consolidation(OR=17.492,95%CI:5.288-57.864,P<0.001)were identified as risk factors for severe AP in children.The area under the ROC curve of the nomogram for pre-dicting severe AP in children was 0.896(95%CI:0.838-0.954).The slope of calibration curve was close to 1,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test yielded x2=7.754,P=0.355.CONCLUSIONS Anemia,congenital heart dis-ease,multiple infection and pulmonary consolidation are risk factors for severe AP in children.The constructed nomogram enables individualized prediction of severe AP risk in children,thereby guiding personalized interventions.
