BK virus is a common opportunistic viral infection that could cause BK virus-associated nephropathy in renal transplant recipients. Thus, we retrospectively analyzed clinical and laboratory data associated with higher risk of BK virus activation from 195 renal transplant recipients by multivariable logistic regression and performed the external validation. Results showed that the patients with BK virus active-infection were associated with deceased donor, had lower direct bilirubin levels, higher proportion of albumin in serum protein electrophoresis, lower red blood cell and neutrophil counts. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the living donor, direct bilirubin, neutrophil counts were significantly associated with BK virus activation. The logistic model displayed a modest discriminability with area under receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.689 (95% CI, 0.607–0.771; P < 0.01), and also demonstrated a good performance in the external validation dataset (area under receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.699, 95% CI: 0.5899 - 0.8081). The novel predictive nomogram achieved a good prediction of BK virus activation in kidney transplant recipients.
