The cohort was randomly split into a training set (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f1,555) and an internal validation set (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f666). Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was used for predictor selection from 25 candidate variables. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify independent associated factors and construct a nomogram. Model performance was assessed by discrimination (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, AUC), calibration (calibration curve with Brier score), and clinical utility (decision curve analysis).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      LASSO regression identified three core associated factors: smoking history, Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII\n                      <jats:sub>100<\/jats:sub>\n                      ), and Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI). Multivariate logistic regression confirmed all three as independent associated factors: smoking history (OR\u202f=\u202f0.66, 95% CI: 0.52\u20130.85,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f0.001), SII\n                      <jats:sub>100<\/jats:sub>\n                      (OR\u202f=\u202f1.30, 95% CI: 1.25\u20131.36,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f&amp;lt;\u202f0.001), and PNI (OR\u202f=\u202f0.96, 95% CI: 0.93\u20130.98,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f&amp;lt;\u202f0.001). The combined nomogram achieved an AUC of 0.802 (95% CI: 0.780\u20130.824) in the training set and 0.804 (95% CI, 0.771\u20130.838) in the validation set. Calibration curves showed acceptable but imperfect agreement (Brier scores: 0.185 in training, 0.188 in validation), with notable deviation in the training set but improved fit in the validation set, and decision curve analysis demonstrated positive net benefit across a wide range of threshold probabilities.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The nomogram developed in this study may help identify individuals with higher probability of PD diagnosis in a cross-sectional setting using only three routine variables (smoking history, SII\n                      <jats:sub>100<\/jats:sub>\n                      , and PNI). The model maintained moderate discrimination (AUC\u202f~\u202f0.80) and acceptable but imperfect calibration (Brier scores: 0.185 in training, 0.188 in validation), though calibration in the training set showed some deviation from the ideal line. Decision curve analysis supported its positive net benefit in real-world clinical decision-making. As a promising tool for cross-sectional diagnostic classification, it requires external validation to confirm its generalizability in large-scale populations.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fnagi.2026.1848990","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,23]],"date-time":"2026-07-23T10:42:59Z","timestamp":1784803379000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Can smoking history, peripheral inflammation, and nutritional status discriminate Parkinson\u2019s disease?
