Influencing factors of acute kidney injury in elderly patients with diabetic nephropathy and establishment of nomogram model by Ganlin Wu, Ganlin Wu, Yanli Ye, Meirong Xu, Yanxia Zhang, Zuopeng Lu, Lv Huang

“…The C-index of the nomogram risk prediction model in predicting acute kidney injury in diabetic nephropathy is 0.768 (95% CI: 0.663-0.806), and the calibration curve tends to the ideal curve; the prediction threshold is >0.18, and the nomogram risk prediction model provides a clinical net benefits, and clinical net benefits were higher than independent predictors.ConclusionThe establishment of a nomogram model for acute kidney injury in elderly patients with diabetic nephropathy based on age, ACR, CysC, LVEF, and eGFR has a good predictive effect, which can help doctors more accurately assess the patient’s condition and provide a basis for formulating personalized treatment plans.…”
