DeepSAP: A Novel Brain Image-Based Deep Learning Model for Predicting Stroke-Associated Pneumonia From Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE: Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) often appears as a complication following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), leading to poor prognosis and increased mortality rates. Previous studies have typically developed prediction models based on clinical data alone, without considering that ICH patients often undergo CT scans immediately upon admission. As a result, these models are s...

Prediction of Anastomotic Leakage in Esophageal Cancer Surgery: A Multimodal Machine Learning Model Integrating Imaging and Clinical Data.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Surgery in combination with chemo/radiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer. Even after the introduction of minimally invasive techniques, esophagectomy carries significant morbidity and mortality. One of the most common and feared complications of esophagectomy is anastomotic leakage (AL). Our work aimed to develop a multimodal machine...
