Although multiple biomarkers have been studied for mortality risk stratification in this population, the prognostic relationship of the lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR) remains incompletely defined in critically ill patients with influenza. This study aims to investigate whether baseline ICU admission LAR levels are independently associated with mortality in critically ill patients with influenza cases and assess its incremental predictive value beyond established scoring systems.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Utilizing data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database (MIMIC-IV, version 3.1), this retrospective cohort study enrolled adult patients diagnosed with influenza who required ICU admission. LAR was calculated based on lactate and albumin levels measured within 24\u00a0h of ICU admission. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality, with secondary outcomes including in-hospital, 60-day, 90-day, and 1-year mortality. The association between LAR and mortality risk was assessed using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models, with robustness evaluated through subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses. Survival differences across LAR levels were compared via Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests. Discriminative performance was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the C-index.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 142 critically ill patients with influenza were included, with an overall 30-day mortality of 22.53%. Univariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that a higher LAR was associated with an increased risk of 30-day mortality in ICU patients with influenza (HR 2.43, 95% CI 1.80\u20133.29;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis confirmed this association, showing a similarly elevated risk (HR 2.93, 95% CI 1.95\u20134.39;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).

The AUC of LAR for predicting mortality was 0.783, comparable to APS III (AUC 0.785, 95% CI 0.696\u20130.874;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.140), SAPS II (AUC 0.717, 95% CI 0.617\u20130.817;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.157), OASIS (AUC 0.643, 95% CI 0.531\u20130.756;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.168), and SOFA (AUC 0.687, 95% CI 0.580\u20130.794;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.160).
