A Clinical Risk Model to Predict Rapidly Progressive Interstitial Lung Disease Incidence in Dermatomyositis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD) is a fatal complication of dermatomyositis (DM) and clinically amyopathic DM (CADM). The objective of this study was to evaluate risk markers associated with RP-ILD incidence in patients with DM/CADM and to develop a RP-ILD risk prediction (RRP) model. Methods: The clinical records of 229 patients with DM/CADM from Peking University People's Hospital, and 97 patients from four other independent clinical centers were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors associated with later RP-ILD incidence to build a risk score model. The concordance index (C-index) and calibration curve were calculated to evaluate the predictive
