    Aim: To provide a risk prediction for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in premature infants under the new diagnostic criteria and establish a prediction model.In this study, we retrospectively collected case data on preterm infants admitted to the NICU from August 2015 to August 2018. A lasso analysis was performed to identify the risk factors associated with the development of BPD. A nomogram predictive model was constructed in accordance with the new diagnostic criteria for BPD.Result: A total of 276 preterm infants were included in the study.The incidence of BPD under the 2018 diagnostic criteria was 11.2%. Mortality was significantly higher in the BPD group than the non-BPD group under the 2018 diagnostic criteria (P<0.05). Fourteen possible variables were selected by the Lasso method, with a penalty coefficient λ=0.0154. The factors that eventually entered the logistic regression model included birth weight [BW, OR=0.9945, 95% CI:
