Multicenter study develops prediction model for PHN risk in herpes zoster patients, guiding preventive strategies.
This study provides the first report of PHN incidence among patients with HZ in Quanzhou. By integrating routine clinical and laboratory indicators, we successfully developed and validated a logistic regression model for predicting PHN risk. This model offers clinicians a practical tool for early identification of patients at high risk during the acute phase, thereby guiding timely preventive strategies.
