OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of preoperative intake of oral carbohydrates versus standard preoperative fasting prior to elective cesarean delivery on plasma purine levels (hypoxanthine, xanthine, and uric acid) and beta-hydroxybutyrate (β-HB) in...
BACKGROUND: Post-operative moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation (MR) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with poor outcomes, yet the factors contributing to this complication are not well understood. This study ai...
Patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are highly susceptible to sepsis. This study evaluates the efficacy of machine learning (ML) models in predicting sepsis risk in intensive care units (ICUs) patients with ICH. We conducted a retrospective ...
