A novel nomogram effectively predicts the risk of intestinal barrier dysfunction (IBDF) in patients post-major abdominal surgery. Analyzing 684 patients, researchers identified eight independent predictors, achieving an AUC of 0.946 in the training cohort and 0.944 in validation. This tool allows clinicians to identify high-risk patients early, enhancing treatment decisions and potentially reducing complications linked to IBDF. Consistency and clinical applicability were confirmed through extensive calibration and analysis.
