An Interpretable ICU Mortality Prediction Model Based on Logistic Regression and Recurrent Neural Networks with LSTM units.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Most existing studies used logistic regression to establish scoring systems to predict intensive care unit (ICU) mortality. Machine learning-based approaches can achieve higher prediction accuracy but, unlike the scoring systems, frequently cannot pr...

Deep learning for predicting in-hospital mortality among heart disease patients based on echocardiography.

Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)
BACKGROUND: Heart disease (HD) is the leading cause of global death; there are several mortality prediction models of HD for identifying critically-ill patients and for guiding decision making. The existing models, however, cannot be used during init...

Machine-learned models using hematological inflammation markers in the prediction of short-term acute coronary syndrome outcomes.

Journal of translational medicine
BACKGROUND: Increased systemic and local inflammation play a vital role in the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome. This study aimed to assess the usefulness of selected machine learning methods and hematological markers of inflammation in pre...

A comparison of logistic regression models with alternative machine learning methods to predict the risk of in-hospital mortality in emergency medical admissions via external validation.

Health informatics journal
We compare the performance of logistic regression with several alternative machine learning methods to estimate the risk of death for patients following an emergency admission to hospital based on the patients' first blood test results and physiologi...

Comparison of machine learning models for the prediction of mortality of patients with unplanned extubation in intensive care units.

Scientific reports
Unplanned extubation (UE) can be associated with fatal outcome; however, an accurate model for predicting the mortality of UE patients in intensive care units (ICU) is lacking. Therefore, we aim to compare the performances of various machine learning...

Vitamin D in the ICU: More sun for critically ill adult patients?

Nutrition (Burbank, Los Angeles County, Calif.)
Critical illness in patients is characterized by systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. Vitamin D has a myriad of biological functions relevant to this population, including immunomodulation by the alteration of cytokine production and nuclear f...

Optimal intensive care outcome prediction over time using machine learning.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Prognostication is an essential tool for risk adjustment and decision making in the intensive care unit (ICU). Research into prognostication in ICU has so far been limited to data from admission or the first 24 hours. Most ICU admissions ...

Low vitamin D at ICU admission is associated with cancer, infections, acute respiratory insufficiency, and liver failure.

Nutrition (Burbank, Los Angeles County, Calif.)
OBJECTIVES: Vitamin D deficiency may be associated with comorbidities and poor prognosis. However, this association in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) has not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the serum...

Validation of deep-learning-based triage and acuity score using a large national dataset.

PloS one
AIM: Triage is important in identifying high-risk patients amongst many less urgent patients as emergency department (ED) overcrowding has become a national crisis recently. This study aims to validate that a Deep-learning-based Triage and Acuity Sco...
