Establishment of a prediction model for prehospital return of spontaneous circulation in out-of-hospital patients with cardiac arrest

BACKGROUND Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest(OHCA)is a leading cause of death worldwide.AIM To explore factors influencing prehospital return of spontaneous circulation(P-ROSC)in patients with OHCA and develop a nomogram prediction model.METHODS Clinical data of patients with OHCA in Shenzhen,China,from January 2012 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression and multivariate logistic regression were applied to select the optimal factors predicting P-ROSC in patients with OHCA.A nomogram prediction model was established based on these influencing factors.Discrimination and calibration were assessed using receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)and calibration curves.Decision curve analysis(DCA)was used to evaluate the model’s clinical utility.RESULTS Among the included 2685 patients with OHCA,the P-ROSC incidence was 5.8%.LASSO and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age,bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR),initial rhythm,CPR duration,ventilation mode,and pathogenesis were independent factors influencing P-ROSC in these patients.The area under the ROC was 0.963.The calibration plot demonstrated that the predicted P-ROSC model was concordant with the actual P-ROSC.The good clinical usability of the prediction model was confirmed using DCA.CONCLUSION The nomogram prediction model could effectively predict the probability of P-ROSC in patients with OHCA.

The Nonlinear Lopsided HSS-Like Modulus-Based Matrix Splitting Iteration Method for Linear Complementarity Problems with Positive-Definite Matrices

In this paper,by means of constructing the linear complementarity problems into the corresponding absolute value equation,we raise an iteration method,called as the nonlinear lopsided HSS-like modulus-based matrix splitting iteration method,for solving the linear complementarity problems whose coefficient matrix in R^(n×n)is large sparse and positive definite.From the convergence analysis,it is appreciable to see that the proposed method will converge to its accurate solution under appropriate conditions.Numerical examples demonstrate that the presented method precede to other methods in practical implementation.
