Nomogram effectively predicts intra-abdominal infection risk post-gastrectomy

A nutrition-based nomogram has been developed to predict the risk of intra-abdominal infection (IAI) after D2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. An analysis of 404 patients identified key indicators, including the NRS2002 score, fasting blood glucose, and multi-visceral resection, associating them with IAI risk. The nomogram demonstrated good predictive capacity (AUROC 0.744) and excellent calibration, providing clinicians a valuable tool for assessing postoperative complications effectively.
