Of these, 219 were included in the training set, 87 in the internal validation set, and 105 in the external validation set. Binary logistic regression was used to construct the model. The model fit and diagnostic accuracy were assessed using the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), calibration curves, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC). The model was presented in the form of a nomogram. Internal and external validations of the model were performed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Diagnostic models for RP-CPP were developed both with and without the inclusion of OC. Among all models, those that included OC consistently demonstrated smaller AIC values, higher AUC values, and lower prediction error rates. A model incorporating the duration of breast development, serum OC levels, mean ovarian volume, endometrial presence\/absence, and breast Tanner staging demonstrated superior performance. The AUC for diagnosing RP-CPP was 0.973, with a sensitivity of 91.6% and specificity of 92.5%. The model performed well in the internal and external validation sets, demonstrating good clinical application value.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The inclusion of OC helps improve the predictive performance of the model. For the diagnosis of RP-CPP in girls, a model can be chosen that includes the duration of breast development, serum OC levels, mean ovarian volume, endometrial presence\/absence, and breast Tanner staging. However, all samples were from a single center, and multicenter validation is still needed.<\/jats:p>\n
