A risk score model to predict in-hospital mortality of patients with end-stage renal disease and acute myocardial infarction
In this study, we aimed to establish a risk score (RS) model to predict in-hospital mortality risk in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). A total of 113 consecutive patients with ESRD and AMI were retrospectively enrolled between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019. All patients received regular hemodialysis and were divided into two groups according to the prognosis during hospitalization. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify the risk factors of in-hospital mortality. A RS model was developed based on multiple regression analysis and was internally validated using 1000 bootstrap analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed, and the area under curve (AUC) was analyzed to evaluate the performance of the RS model. AUCs were compared using theZ test. Thirty-three patients died during hospitalization, resulting in in-hospital mortality rate of 29.2%. After multivariate logistic regression, an RS model (0 –8) was established based on five independent factors that were assigned with different points according to relative coefficients (coefficient of the index risk factor divided by the lowest coefficient among these five risk factors; rounded to closest integer): 1 for C-reactive protein (CRP) ≥ 14.2 mg/L and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ V3%; 2 for age ≥ 65 years old, heart rate (HR) at admission ≥ 86 beats per minute...
