BACKGROUND: This study addresses the critical need for timely and accurate diagnosis of early postoperative infection (EPI) following cardiac surgery. EPI significantly impacts patient outcomes and healthcare costs, making its early detection vital.
Patients with multiple comorbidities and those undergoing complex cardiac surgery may experience extubation failure and reintubation. The aim of this study was to establish an extubation prediction model using explainable machine learning and identif...
BACKGROUND: Consensus-based large language model (LLM) ensembles might provide an automated solution for extracting structured data from unstructured text in echocardiography reports.

INTRODUCTION: We aimed to create and validate the 30-day prognostic score for mortality in patients with surgical wound infection (SWICS-30) after cardiothoracic surgery.
BACKGROUND: The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) was developed to reduce the effects of long-term chronic glycemic factors on stress hyperglycemia levels, which was associated with adverse clinical outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the relationsh...
STUDY OBJECTIVE: Delirium is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with poor prognosis. An effective delirium prediction model could identify high-risk patients who might benefit from targeted prevention strategies. We introdu...
