Objective:
This study aimed to construct a machine learning predictive model for prognostic analysis of patients with p- ARDS.
Methods:
In this single-center retrospective study, 230 patients with p- ARDS admitted to the RICU of the second affiliated hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2020 to November 2024 were included. Patients were divided into survival group and death group according to the 28-day prognosis results. All patients' clinical data were first results within 24 h of admission. 20% of the total samples were randomly selected as the test set, and the remaining samples were used as the training set for crossvalidation, and six different models were constructed, including Logistic Regression, Random Forest, NaiveBayes, SVM, XGBoost and Adaboost. The AUC value, AP value, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, Brier score, and F 1 score were used to evaluate the performance of the models and pick the optimal model. Finally, the SHAP feature importance map was drawn to explain the optimal model.
Results:
10 key variables, namely LAR, Lac, pH, age, PO2/FiO2, ALB, BMI, TP, PT, DBIL were screened using the filtration method. The importance ranking of the variables showed that age was the most important variable. Among the six algorithms, the performance of the SVM algorithm is significantly better than that of other algorithms. The AUC, AP, Accuracy, Sensitivity, Specificity, Brier Score, and F1 Scores in the test set were 0.77, 0.67, 0.74, 0.60, 0.81, 0.19, and 0.60, respectively. This indicates the potential value of machine learning models in predicting the prognosis of patients with p- ARDS.
Conclusion:
This study developed and visualized a machine learning model constructed based on 10 common clinical features for predicting 28-day mortality in patients with p- ARDS. The model shows good predictive performance and achieves explanatory analysis in combination with SHAP and LIME methods, providing a reliable mortality risk assessment tool for p- ARDS.
