Methods: This study was a single-center retrospective study, which screened the case data of 2665 patients with solid tumors after receiving anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University for 180 days of observation by a systematic retrospective method, 33 cases of cardiovascular toxicity, and the outcome was based on whether or not death from cardiovascular toxicity of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy occurred as the outcome categorized into death and survival groups. A one-way Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors and control for relevant confounders, and a predictive model was constructed to draw a column-line graph. Finally, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC), Decision Curve Analysis (DCA), and Calibration Curve (CC) were used for internal evaluation and internal validation. Results: 1) Lymphocyte, Platelet, Diabetes, Types of immune checkpoint inhibitors, Echocardiographic ventricular wall motion abnormalities and monocyte differences between two groups: those with death from cardiovascular toxicity and those without were statistically significant (all p < 0.05). 2) Univariate Cox regression identified diabetes (HR = 6.03, 95% CI 1.67~21.77, p = 0.006), Types of immune checkpoint inhibitors (HR = 6.62, 95% CI 1.69~25.89, p = 0.007), Echocardiographic ventricular wall motion abnormalities (HR = 4.61, 95% CI 1.19~17.85, p = 0.027), monocyte HR = 0.02, 95% CI 0.00~0.49, p = 0.015) as significant predictors. 3) Multivariate analysis confirmed monocyte (HR = 0.02, 95% CI 0.00~0.77, p = 0.036) as an independent predictor. 4) A predictive model for the risk of death from cardiovascular toxicity was constructed by including 4 variables (p < 0.05) from univariate Cox regression in a nomogram, with an AUC of 0.88 and 95% CI of 0.75 to 1.00. Conclusion: 1) Diabetes, Types of immune checkpoint inhibitors, Echocardiographic ventricular wall motion abnormalities and monocyte were significant predictors of death from cardiovascular toxicity. 2) Monocyte was an independent protective factor, after adjusting for other covariates. 3) A predictive model for the risk of cardiovascular toxic death was constructed by incorporating 4 variables from univariate Cox regression into a nomogram, and this model had good precision, discrimination, accuracy, and clinical benefit effects.展开更多
