    Dermatomyositis-associated interstitial lung disease (DM-ILD) can lead to respiratory failure and high mortality, especially in anti-MDA5 antibody-positive patients.

  • 2

    A multimodal model was developed to predict 90-day respiratory failure in DM-ILD patients using data collected within the first 48 hours of admission.

  • 3

    The model demonstrated an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.967, indicating strong discriminative performance.

  • 4

    Key predictors of respiratory failure included arthritis, pulmonary function indices, laboratory markers, and latent CT features.

  • 5

    The study highlights the potential of using early admission data for risk assessment in DM-ILD when anti-MDA5 antibody results are delayed.
