    Sepsis is a life-threatening syndrome that often leads to multiple organ dysfunction, particularly affecting the lungs.

  • 2

    Current predictive models for sepsis-related lung injury and mortality show moderate discrimination but are limited by bias and low certainty.

  • 3

    The review included nine studies, primarily from China, assessing 68 model phase units for ARDS occurrence and short-term mortality.

  • 4

    Pooled test-phase AUC for ARDS occurrence was 0.749, while short-term mortality AUCs were 0.800 in training and 0.815 in testing.

  • 5

    Future predictive models for sepsis-associated lung injury should be developed and validated separately for ARDS and mortality outcomes.
