    Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is a severe complication of wasp stings, with a death rate exceeding 40%.

  • 2

    A study of 324 wasp sting patients identified age, time to admission, pleural effusion, RALE score, MPV/PLT, and SIRI as independent risk factors for MODS.

  • 3

    A nomogram-based prediction model for MODS was developed, showing an AUC of 0.828, with sensitivity of 66.7% and specificity of 87.9%.

  • 4

    The model integrates clinical characteristics, imaging findings, and laboratory parameters for risk assessment of MODS.

  • 5

    Further validation of the model is needed through large-scale, multicenter, prospective studies to confirm its reliability.
