Prognostic Value of Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, and Platelet Score in Predicting Mortality in Patients With Aortic Dissection: A Retrospective Single-Center Study Based on ROC Curve Analysis.

Key Points

This research examines the effectiveness of the HALP score in predicting mortality for patients with aortic dissection.
Retrospective single-center study design
Assessment of HALP score components (hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet levels)
ROC curve analysis for evaluating the predictive validity of the score
HALP score shows high specificity for mortality prediction
Moderate sensitivity was also observed
The score is deemed easy to use in emergency settings

Abstract

The HALP score demonstrated high specificity and moderate sensitivity in predicting mortality in AD, suggesting its potential as a complementary biomarker. Its ease of use and accessibility make it suitable for emergency clinical settings. Prospective multicenter studies are needed to confirm its prognostic validity and routine application in AD management.
