Some studies have identified prognostic factors capable of predicting ED, whereas no risk rating system for ED has been reported in the literature. In this study, a risk classification system was built to identify subgroup at high risk of ED among patients with APL.Methods: Totally, 364 consecutive APL patients who received arsenic trioxide as induction therapy were included. Ten baseline clinical characteristics were selected for analysis, and they were de novo/relapse, age, sex, white blood cell count, platelet count, serum fibrinogen, creatinine, uric acid, aspartate aminotransferase, and albumin. Using a training cohort (N=275), a multivariable logistic regression model was constructed, which was internally validated by the bootstrap method and externally validated using an independent cohort (N=89). Based on the model, a risk classification system was designed. Then, all patients were regrouped into de novo (N=285) and relapse (N=79) cohorts and the model and risk classification system were applied to both cohorts.Results: The constructed model included 8 variables without platelet count and sex. The model had excellent discriminatory ability (optimism-corrected area under the receiver operator characteristic curve=0.816±0.028 in the training cohort and area under the receiver operator characteristic curve=0.798 in the independent cohort) and fit well for both the training and independent data sets (Hosmer–Lemeshow test, P=0.718 and 0.25, respectively). The optimism-corrected calibration slope was 0.817±0.12. The risk classification system could identify a subgroup comprising ~25% of patients at high risk of ED in both the training and independent cohorts (OR=0.140, P<0.001 and OR=0.224, P=0.027, respectively). The risk classification system could effectively identify patient subgroups at high risk of ED in not only de novo but also relapse cohorts (OR=0.233, P<0.001 and OR=0.105, P=0.001, respectively).Conclusion: All the results highlight the high practical value of the risk classification system.
