Factors Affecting Early-onset Sepsis in Preterm Infants and Construction of Nomogram Model
Objective To analyze the factors influencing early-onset sepsis in preterm infants and construct nomogram model.Methods A total of 124 neonates with premature sepsis admitted to Shanxi Children's Hospital(Shanxi Maternal and Child Health Hos-pital)from January 2020 to December 2021 were collected.According to gestational age,the neonates were divided into premature group(n=33)and full-term group(n=91),and the clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared,and nomogram model was es-tablished to internally validate the predictiveness and accuracy of the model.Results Compared with the full-term group,the proportion of females in premature group was higher(x2=7.147,P＜0.05),the 1min Apgarscore in premature group was lower(x2=-3.398,P＜0.05),the proportion of perinatal mothers with pregnancy complications in premature group was higher(x2=7.846,P＜0.05),the incidence of pneumonia and poor response in preterm infants of premature group were higher(x2=18.210,P＜0.05;x2=14.814,P＜0.05),but the incidence of jaundice in premature group was lower(x2=10.400,P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that female and pneumonia were risk factors for early-onset sepsis in preterm infants(P＜0.05).The results of the nomogram model showed that the C-index of the model was 0.886.The predicted incidence was generally consistent with the actual incidence,the area under the receiver operator characteristic curve was 0.886,and the decision curve showed a high net benefit value at threshold proba-bilities of 4％-100％.Conclusion Female,preterm infants with pneumonia have a higher risk of early-onset sepsis.The nomogram model of premature sepsis constructed in this study has high clinical value and can provide a reference basis for clinical prevention of early-onset sepsis in preterm infants.
