From: Prognostic nomogram for 30-day mortality of deep vein thrombosis patients in intensive care unit
The nomogram obtained from the logistic regression with LASSO model. a If a patient meets the target requirement in each variable, he/she will be given a score according to the points above (considering that the nomogram is difficult to calculate with naked eyes, the score that each indicator get has been pointed out). The total score obtained by adding up the scores of all indicators can be compared with the risk of 30-day death probability below. b A simple case analysis: a 64Â years old female got deep vein thrombosis when admitted to intensive care unit. She had complications of sepsis and metastatic cancer. Her systolic blood pressure was 107Â mmHg. After laboratory test, her blood urea nitrogen was 32Â mg/dL, albumin was 2.5Â g/dL, lactate was 3.2Â mmol/L and NLR was 10.7. According to our nomogram, she finally got 416 score and a 30-day death probability that higher than 0.75. LASSO least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, NLR neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio
