BACKGROUND: The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is considered an important marker of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk. However, its potential role in predicting length of stay (LOS), especially in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular...
OBJECTIVE: We aim to develop and validate an interpretable machine-learning model that can provide critical information for the clinical treatment of critically ill patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
OBJECTIVE: Early prediction of long-term outcomes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remains a great challenge in clinical practice. Our study aims to develop and validate predictive models for the mortality risk.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Critically ill children admitted to the intensive care unit frequently need respiratory care to support the lung function. Mechanical ventilation is a complex field with multiples parameters to set. The development of precision med...

BACKGROUND: Accurate estimation of resting energy expenditure (REE) is critical for guiding nutritional therapy in critically ill patients. While indirect calorimetry (IC) is the gold standard for REE measurement, it is not routinely feasible in clin...
IMPORTANCE: Decreasing mortality in the field of pediatric critical care medicine has shifted practicing clinicians' attention to preserving patients' neurodevelopmental potential as a main objective. Earlier identification of critically ill children...
Major advances in managing critically ill patients with liver disease have improved their prognosis and access to intensive care facilities. Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is now a well-defined disease and these patients can be fast-tracked fo...
INTRODUCTION: Propofol is a widely used sedative-hypnotic agent for critically ill patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Despite its clinical benefits, propofol is associated with increased risks of hypertriglyceridemia. Early ide...
BACKGROUND: Hypotension is associated with organ injury and death in surgical and critically ill patients. In clinical practice, treating hypotension remains challenging because it can be caused by various underlying haemodynamic alterations. We aime...
