预测模型第4篇|临床预测模型开发checklist

简介：近年来关于预测模型的文章很多，但很多相关研究都存在各种各样的不规范，也就是开发的模型成千上万，正能用的少之又少。关于那些 prognostic gene model就更不用说了，今天灌明天灌肯定是不行的。

前文我们已经对TRIPOD声明的内容即背景进行了介绍，本文对TRIPOD checklist-开发预测模型进行详细解读。

要发表高质量的临床预测模型研究，应该参考真正规范的报告模型，我们根据这一的一个checklist来帮助我们查缺补漏。绝知此事要躬行，这里白介素2整理阅读了来自 TRIPOD checklist文件，全文如下，如有不当之处，请诸位斧正。

标题-Title

1. Identify the study as developing and/or validating a multivariable prediction model, the target population, and the outcome to be predicted.

• 文章标题应该指出是开发一个多因素预测模型
• 指出目标人群
• 指出预测的结局

摘要-Abstrat

2. Provide a summary of objectives, study design, setting, participants, sample size, predictors, outcome, statistical analysis, results, and conclusions.

文章的摘要部分应该概括 目的，研究设计，纳入人群，样本量，预测因素，预测结局，统计分析，结果，文章结论 。一个好的摘要通常是简明扼要的，但又不缺失这些信息，在临床预测模型文章准备过程中应该按照这些核心元素去撰写。

9. Describe how missing data were handled (e.g., complete-case analysis, single imputation, multiple imputation) with details of any imputation method.

• 描述 缺失数据是如何处理的，比如完整案例分析，单纯插补， 多重插补方法。如有插补应该描述插补方法的细节。

统计方法-Statistical analysis methods

10a. Describe how predictors were handled in the analyses.

10b. Specify type of model, all model-building procedures (including any predictor selection), and method for internal validation.

10d. Specify all measures used to assess model performance and, if relevant, to compare multiple models.

• 描述 预测因素（变量）在分析中是如何处理的
• 指出模型的类型，完整的模型构建步骤（包括变量选择），以及内部验证的方法
• 指出用以评估模型表现的方法，如果相关的话，比较多个模型的表现

风险分组-Risk group

11. Provide details on how risk groups were created, if done.

• 如果模型进行了风险分组，应该提供风险分组是如何得出的

结果

参与对象

13a. Describe the flow of participants through the study, including the number of participants with and without the outcome and, if applicable, a summary of the follow-up time. A diagram may be helpful.

13b. Describe the characteristics of the participants (basic demographics, clinical features, available predictors), including the number of participants with missing data for predictors and outcome.

• 描述参与对象选择的流程，包括有结局，无结局的对象；包括对随访时间的概括；最好以图形的形式呈现
