OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to predict mortality in children with pneumonia who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) to aid decision-making.
This study addresses the challenges associated with emergency department (ED) overcrowding and emphasizes the need for efficient risk stratification tools to identify high-risk patients for early intervention. While several scoring systems, often bas...
BACKGROUND: In intensive care units (ICUs), accurate mortality prediction is crucial for effective patient management and resource allocation. The Simplified Acute Physiology Score II (SAPS-2), though commonly used, relies heavily on comprehensive cl...
As a serious blood infection disease, sepsis is characterized by a high mortality risk and many complications. Accurate assessment of mortality risk of patients with sepsis can help physicians in Intensive Care Unit make optimal clinical decisions, w...
BACKGROUND: We previously showed that machine learning-based methodologies of optimal classification trees (OCTs) can accurately predict risk after congenital heart surgery and assess case-mix-adjusted performance after benchmark procedures. We exten...
BACKGROUND: Classification of perioperative risk is important for patient care, resource allocation, and guiding shared decision-making. Using discriminative features from the electronic health record (EHR), machine-learning algorithms can create dig...
Ischemic stroke (IS) is a common and severe condition that requires intensive care unit (ICU) admission, with high mortality and variable prognosis. Accurate and reliable predictive tools that enable early risk stratification can facilitate intervent...

We develop a nonparametric model to study health spillover effects of policy interventions. We use double/debiased machine learning to estimate the model using data from 74 hospitals in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and examine cross-patient spillover effe...
Predicting the patient's in-hospital mortality from the historical Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) can assist physicians to make clinical decisions and assign medical resources. In recent years, researchers proposed many deep learning methods to pr...
