Abstract:
Objective To construct a Nomogram prediction model for prognosis of retinopathy of prematurity(ROP)based on serological markers and to validate the predictive value of the model.Methods A total of 195 ROP pa-tients(390 eyes)admitted to the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2022 to January 2024 were se-lected.After 3-month follow-up post-treatment,the patients were divided into poor-prognosis(n=41)and good-prognosis(n=154)groups.General data and pre-treatment serological markers[vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),insu-lin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1),glutamate(Glu),signal transduction and transcriptional activator 3(STAT3),hypoxic in-ducible factor 3α(HIF-3α)]were compared between the two groups.LASSO-Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors for poor prognosis in ROP patients.A Nomogram prediction model for poor prognosis in ROP patients was construc-ted based on these factors.The predictive value of the model was validated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,calibration curves,and decision-curve analysis.Results The 1-min Apgar score,5-min Apgar score,proportion of severe disease,proportion of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),proportion of sepsis,and pre-treatment serum levels of VEGF,Glu,STAT3,and HIF-3α were higher in the poor-prognosis group than in the good-prognosis group,while gesta-tional age,birth weight,and serum IGF-1 levels were lower(all P<0.05).LASSO-Logistic regression analysis showed that gestational age,disease severity,BPD,sepsis,and pre-treatment serum levels of VEGF,IGF-1,Glu,STAT3,and HIF-3αwere risk factors for poor prognosis in ROP patients(all P<0.05).A Nomogram prediction model for poor prognosis in ROP patients was constructed based on these factors.The model had an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.943(95%CI:0.907-0.978)for predicting poor prognosis,indicating high predictive efficacy.The model had good calibration,with good con-sistency between predicted and actual results,and demonstrated good clinical utility in predicting poor prognosis in ROP patients.Conclusion Serum levels of VEGF,IGF-1,Glu,STAT3,and HIF-3α are all prognostic factors for ROP pa-tients.The Nomogram prediction model for ROP prognosis based on these serological markers has high application value.
