Development and validation of a nomogram for predicting in-hospital mortality in patients with nonhip femoral fractures.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe incidence of nonhip femoral fractures is gradually increasing, but few studies have explored the risk factors for in-hospital death in patients with nonhip femoral fractures in the ICU or developed mortality prediction models. Therefore, we chose to study this specific patient group, hoping to help clinicians improve the prognosis of patients.
methodsThis is a retrospective study based on the data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was used to screen risk factors. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and the areas under the curve (AUC), net reclassification index (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were calculated to evaluate the discrimination of the model. The consistency between the actual probability and the predicted probability was assessed by the calibration curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test (HL test). Decision curve analysis (DCA) was performed, and the nomogram was compared with the scoring system commonly used in clinical practice to evaluate the clinical net benefit.
resultsThe LASSO regression analysis showed that heart rate, temperature, red blood cell distribution width, blood urea nitrogen, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Simplified Acute Physiology Score II (SAPSII), Charlson comorbidity index and cerebrovascular disease were independent risk factors for in-hospital death in patients with nonhip femoral fractures. The AUC, IDI and NRI of our model in the training set and validation set were better than those of the GCS and SAPSII scoring systems. The calibration curve and HL test results showed that our model prediction results were in good agreement with the actual results (P = 0.833 for the HL test of the training set and P = 0.767 for the HL test of the validation set). DCA showed that our model had a better clinical net benefit than the GCS and SAPSII scoring systems.
conclusionIn this study, the independent risk factors for in-hospital death in patients with nonhip femoral fractures were determined, and a prediction model was constructed. The results of this study may help to improve the clinical prognosis of patients with nonhip femoral fractures.
