New biomarkers to predict the need for surgery of necrotizing enterocolitis: a study based on abdominal X-ray radiomics and machine learning.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an inflammatory intestinal disease that primarily affects premature infants and is a major cause of death in the neonatal period. Approximately half of the affected infants require surgical intervention,...

The prediction models for the optimal timing of surgical intervention for necrotizing enterocolitis: nomogram vs. five machine learning models.

Pediatric surgery international
BACKGROUND: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the most common diseases that pose serious threats to the life of newborns. In clinical practice, NEC is typically treated by surgical intervention, but it is still difficult to identify the timin...

The early prediction of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis in high-risk newborns based on two medical center clinical databases.

The journal of maternal-fetal & neonatal medicine : the official journal of the European Association of Perinatal Medicine, the Federation of Asia and Oceania Perinatal Societies, the International Society of Perinatal Obstetricians
: Early identification and timely preventive interventions play an essential role for improving the prognosis of newborns with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Thus, establishing a novel and simple prediction model is of great clinical significance. ...

DUAL VALIDATION ANALYSIS OF SERUM CYP3A4 IN PREDICTING NEC IN PRETERM INFANTS.

Shock (Augusta, Ga.)
Objective: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a life-threatening condition in premature infants, where timely diagnosis and intervention are crucial. This study investigated the potential of serum CYP3A4 as an early predictive biomarker for NEC and d...

Do Treatment Choices by Artificial Intelligence Correspond to Reality? Retrospective Comparative Research with Necrotizing Enterocolitis as a Use Case.

Medical decision making : an international journal of the Society for Medical Decision Making
BackgroundIn cases of surgical necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), the choice between laparotomy (LAP) or comfort care (CC) presents a complex, ethical dilemma. A behavioral artificial intelligence technology (BAIT) decision aid was trained on expert kn...

Artificial Intelligence vs. Doctors: Diagnosing Necrotizing Enterocolitis on Abdominal Radiographs.

Journal of pediatric surgery
BACKGROUND: Radiographic diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is challenging. Deep learning models may improve accuracy by recognizing subtle imaging patterns. We hypothesized it would perform with comparable accuracy to that of senior surgic...

Machine learning-based analysis for prediction of surgical necrotizing enterocolitis in very low birth weight infants using perinatal factors: a nationwide cohort study.

European journal of pediatrics
Early prediction of surgical necrotizing enterocolitis (sNEC) in preterm infants is important. However, owing to the complexity of the disease, identifying infants with NEC at a high risk for surgical intervention is difficult. We developed a machine...

Reassessing acquired neonatal intestinal diseases using unsupervised machine learning.

Pediatric research
BACKGROUND: Acquired neonatal intestinal diseases have an array of overlapping presentations and are often labeled under the dichotomous classification of necrotizing enterocolitis (which is poorly defined) or spontaneous intestinal perforation, hind...

Estimation of Neonatal Intestinal Perforation Associated with Necrotizing Enterocolitis by Machine Learning Reveals New Key Factors.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Intestinal perforation (IP) associated with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the leading causes of mortality in premature neonates; with major nutritional and neurodevelopmental sequelae. Since predicting which neonates will develop perforat...
