Description
Summary:<h4>Objectives</h4>This study aimed to explore the correlation between the sentiment of nursing notes and the one-year mortality of sepsis patients.<h4>Methods</h4>The box plot was used to compare the differences in sentiment polarity/sentiment subjectivity between different groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore the correlation between sentiment polarity/sentiment subjectivity and one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients. Ridge regression, XGBoost regression, and random forest were used to explore the importance of sentiment polarity and subjectivity in the one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was used to explore whether there was a linear relationship between sentiment polarity, sentiment subjectivity and the one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients. Kaplan-Meier (KM) curve was used to explore the relationship between the sentiment polarity (or sentiment subjectivity) and the 1-year death of the patient.<h4>Results</h4>Compared with the control group, the one-year mortality group year had lower sentiment polarity and higher sentiment subjectivity. Sentiment polarity and sentiment subjectivity were independently related to the one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients. There was a linear relationship between sentiment polarity and the one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients. At the same time, there was a nonlinear relationship between sentiment subjectivity and the one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients.KM.<h4>Conclusions</h4>The sentiment of nursing notes was correlated with the one-year mortality of elderly sepsis patients.
