They were randomly divided into a modeling group (n = 2112) and a validation group (n = 874). In the modeling group, identify risk factors through logistic regression models and draw column charts. Use internal validation method to verify the accuracy of column chart prediction. Apply calibration curves to evaluate the consistency between nomograms and ideal observations. Draw a DCA curve to evaluate the net benefits of the prediction model.Results: Nine variables including respiratory rate, heart rate, WBC, PDW, PT, SCR, AMY, CK, and TG are the risk factors for SAP. The column chart risk prediction model which was constructed based on these 9 independent factors has high prediction accuracy (modeling group AUC = 0.788, validation group AUC = 7.789). The calibration curve analysis shows that the prediction probabilities of the modeling and validation groups are consistent with the observation probabilities. By drawing a DCA curve, it shows that the model has a wide threshold range (0.01– 0.88).Conclusion: The study developed an intuitive nomogram containing readily available laboratory parameters to predict the incidence rate of SAP.Keywords: acute pancreatitis, severe, risk factors, predictive model, nomogram
