Abstract
BACKGROUND: Visual cognitive impairment is among the most common postoperative cognitive dysfunctions, significantly impacting recovery and quality of life in elderly patients. However, effective preoperative prediction methods remain lacking. We developed a machine learning model using graph theory analysis of resting-state functional connectivity networks to predict postoperative visual cognitive impairment.
