Analysis of risk factors for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in lung cancer patients and construction of a nomogram prediction model
Objective To analyze the risk factors of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting(CINV)in lung cancer patients using univariate and multivariate logistic regression,and to construct and val-idate a nomogram prediction model.Methods Clinical data of lung cancer patients from the Department of Oncology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University,from October 2021 to June 2022 were col-lected.A total of 950 patients meeting the inclusion criteria were selected.According to a random number ta-ble,patients were divided into a training cohort(n=665)and a validation cohort(n=285)at a ratio of 7∶3.After conducting univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses on the training cohort,independent risk factors for CINV were screened,and a nomogram model was established.The accuracy and consistency of the nomogram prediction model were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)and the Hosmer-Lemeshow(HL)test.Results A total of 6 independent risk factors for CINV in non-smoking lung cancer patients were selected through univariate and multivariate logistic regression.A nomogram predicting CINV risk was constructed,with AUCs of 0.887[95%confidence interval(CI):0.861-0.891]and 0.823(95%CI:0.806-0.831)for the training and internal validation cohorts,respec-tively.The HL goodness-of-fit test showed good consistency between predicted and actual observations in both the training and internal validation cohorts(x2=7.89,P>0.05 for the training cohort;x2=5.55,P>0.05 for the internal validation cohort).Conclusion Non-smoking status,history of motion sickness,use of plat-inum-based chemotherapy drugs,absence of chemotherapy history,use of opioid analgesics,and sleep dura-tion less than 7 h are risk factors for CINV in lung cancer patients.A nomogram prediction model for CINV in lung cancer patients based on these factors demonstrates good accuracy and consistency.
