This study aimed to establish an effective prognostic nomogram for surgery of lung cancer in HIV-infected patients.The is based on a retrospective 51 patients who underwent at the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center from July 2012 November 2019. The predictive accuracy and discriminative ability were determined by concordance index (C-index) calibration curve analysis. Internal validity was assessed using bootstrapping validation.Predictors contained included age, CD4+ cell count, method, pathological stage. model displayed good discrimination with C-index 0.755 (95% CI: 0.715-0.795) calibration. A high value 0.844 reached after internal validation.The proposed may result more-accurate predictions patients.
