Fluctuations in blood glucose (BG) levels may exacerbate cardiovascular instability in critically ill patients. Time In Tight Range (TITR), defined as the percentage of time in the target BG range of 3.9\u20137.8\u2009mmol\/L (70\u2013140\u2009mg\/dL), has become an increasingly important index of glycaemic status, but its impact on mortality in CS remains unclear. Interpretable machine learning (ML) models provide transparent, quantitative and visual insights into the prognostic importance of\u2009TITR, clarifying its pivotal role in outcome prediction and providing objective evidence to support individualised glucose management.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Aim<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TITR and mortality in patients with CS, and to provide strong evidence for early intervention and personalised blood glucose management.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Study Design<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a retrospective multi\u2010cohort study to examine the association between TITR and mortality in patients with\u2009CS. The relationship between TITR and in\u2010hospital mortality was analysed using a restricted cubic spline (RCS) model, log\u2010rank test, multivariable Cox and logistic regression analyses. ML models, including XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost, Gradient Boosting, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Neural Network and Naive Bayes, were developed to predict mortality and compared with traditional clinical scoring systems. Model interpretability was assessed using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). Sensitivity and subgroup analyses were used to reveal the robustness of the results.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      RCS analysis revealed an inverse (L\u2010shaped) association (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001) between TITR and in\u2010hospital mortality in both the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC\u2010IV) and the eICU Collaborative Research Database (eICU) cohorts.

The hazard ratios (HRs) (95% confidence interval [CI]) estimated by log\u2010rank test were 1.72 (1.49, 1.99) and 1.49 (1.19, 1.87) in the MIMIC\u2010IV and eICU cohorts, respectively (both\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Sensitivity analyses yielded consistent results, confirming the robustness of the findings. In addition, analyses of ICU mortality, 28\u2010day mortality (only available in the MIMIC\u2010IV cohort), also demonstrated a consistent pattern with the primary outcome.
