Blunt head trauma is a common occurrence in forensic practice. Interpreting the origin of craniocerebral injuries can be a challenging process, particularly when it comes to distinguishing between falls or inflicted blows. The objective of this study...
BACKGROUND: Older persons comprise most traumatic brain injury (TBI)-related hospitalizations and deaths and are particularly susceptible to fall-induced TBIs. The combination of increased frailty and susceptibility to clinical decline creates a sign...
STUDY OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with falls in hospitalized patients, develop a predictive risk model using machine learning algorithms, and evaluate the validity of the model's predictions.

OBJECTIVES: The study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) model to predict early postdischarge falls in older adults using data that are easy to collect in acute care hospitals. This may reduce the burden imposed by complex measures on patients ...
It is evident that Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is an independent risk factor for both the survival of patients and their kidneys. Here, we present a case of oliguric AKI secondary to blunt trauma-induced crush syndrome complicated with severe sepsis in...
