Considering the validation set, the study included 217 patients who received PCI at the East Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University. The patients were classified into CI-AKI and non-CI-AKI groups. The study employed univariate and multivariate logistic analysis for identifying independent risk factors for CI-AKI, followed by developing a predictive nomogram model for CI-AKI risk using R software. The predictive performance and clinical utility of the nomogram were assessed through internal and external validation, utilizing the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC), the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and calibration correction curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA).Results: The nomogram comprised four variables: age, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, and prognostic nutritional index (PNI). The AUC-ROC were 0.785 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.729– 0.841) and 0.802 (95% CI 0.699– 0.905) for the training and validation cohorts, respectively, indicating a high discriminative ability of the nomogram. The calibration assessment and decision curve analysis have substantiated the strong concordance and clinical usefulness of the aforementioned.Conclusion: The nomogram exhibits favorable discrimination and accuracy, enabling it to visually and individually identify pre-procedure high-risk patients, and possesses a predictive capacity regarding CI-AKI incidence after PCI in patients diagnosed with both T2DM and ACS.Keywords: triglyceride-glucose index, prognostic nutritional index, acute coronary syndrome, nomogram, percutaneous coronary intervention, contrast-induced acute kidney injury
