Ideal serum non-ceruloplasmin bound copper prediction for long-term treated patients with Wilson disease: a nomogram model
PurposeThis study aimed to explore the factors associated with the optimal serum non-ceruloplasmin bound copper (NCBC) level and develop a flexible predictive model to guide lifelong therapy in Wilson disease (WD) and delay disease progression.MethodsWe retrospectively collected clinical data from 1...

description | PurposeThis study aimed to explore the factors associated with the optimal serum non-ceruloplasmin bound copper (NCBC) level and develop a flexible predictive model to guide lifelong therapy in Wilson disease (WD) and delay disease progression.MethodsWe retrospectively collected clinical data from 144 patients hospitalized in the Encephalopathy Center of the first affiliated hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine between May 2012 and April 2023. Independent variables were selected using variate COX and LASSO regressions, followed by multivariate COX regression analysis. A predictive nomogram was constructed and validated using the concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, and clinical decision curve analysis, of which nomogram pictures were utilized for model visualization.ResultsA total of 61 (42.36%) patients were included, with an average treatment duration of 55.0 (range, 28.0, 97.0) months. Multivariate regression analysis identified several independent risk factors for serum NCBC level, including age of diagnosis, clinical classification, laminin liver stiffness measurement, and copper to zinc ratio in 24-h urinary excretion. The C-index indicated moderate discriminative ability (48 months: 0.829, 60 months: 0.811, and 72 months: 0.819). The calibration curves showed good consistency and calibration; clinical decision curve analysis demonstrated clinically beneficial threshold probabilities at different time intervals.ConclusionThe predictive nomogram model can predict serum NCBC level; consequently, we recommend its use in clinical practice to delay disease progression and improve the clinical prognosis of WD. |
