Figure 4 Decision curve analysis for the nomogram. Decision curve analysis demonstrates the clinical usefulness of the nomogram. The Y-axis measures the net benefit. The blue line is the nomogram predicting the risk of complications. The solid gray line assumes that complications will occur in all patients. The thin solid black line assumes that no patient will develop complications. In this analysis, the decision curve provided greater net benefits across the range of 4% to 69%.
