Key Points

This research aims to develop and validate a model to predict early-onset hypoglycemia in preterm infants.
Developed a risk prediction model
Validated the model's predictive ability
Suggests the need for further multicenter studies for external validation
The model demonstrated promising predictive ability for early-onset hypoglycemia
It could help in risk stratification strategies for preterm infants
Further validation is required before clinical implementation

Abstract

The model demonstrated promising predictive ability for early-onset hypoglycemia in preterm infants and could potentially serve as a preliminary tool to inform risk stratification strategies. However, its clinical translation requires confirmation through external validation in prospective, multicenter studies before any consideration of widespread implementation.
