Integrative Metabolomic and Lipidomic Signatures of SARS-CoV-2 VOCs: Correlations with Hematological and Biochemical Markers.

In the present study, we investigated biochemical, hematological, lipidomic, and metabolomic alterations associated with different SAR-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs), such as WT, α, β, γ, and δ, as well as their impact on COVID-19 severity. Across the first and second waves in India, a machine learning approach was used in 3134 COVID-19 patients, and nine critical biochemical and hematological p...

Machine Learning-Based Mortality Risk Prediction Model in Patients with Sepsis.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study was to establish and validate a machine learning-based predictive model for mortality risk in elderly patients with sepsis. By integrating traditional biomarkers, novel biomarkers, clinical data, and established scoring systems, the model seeks to enhance predictive accuracy and thereby improve clinical outcomes in high-risk patient population.
