INTRODUCTION: Machine learning (ML) has been tried in predicting outcomes following sepsis. This study aims to identify the utility of stacked ensemble algorithm in predicting mortality.
OBJECTIVES: Increasing operational pressures on emergency departments (ED) make it imperative to quickly and accurately identify patients requiring urgent clinical intervention. The widespread adoption of electronic health records (EHR) makes rich fe...
Purpose: This study aims to establish and validate machine learning-based models to predict death in hospital among critical orthopedic trauma patients with sepsis or respiratory failure. Methods: This study collected 523 patients from the Medical In...
BACKGROUND: The burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains heavy. Glycaemic control is important in the AF management. Glycaemic variability (GV), an emerging marker of glycaemic control, is associated with unfavourab...
Hyponatremia can worsen the outcomes of patients with liver cirrhosis. However, it remains unclear about how to predict the risk of death in cirrhotic patients with hyponatremia. Patients with liver cirrhosis and hyponatremia were screened. Eligible ...
BACKGROUND: There is a dearth of literature regarding prognostic and predictive factors for outcome following pediatric decompressive craniectomy (DC) performed after traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of this study was to develop a random forest ...
BACKGROUND: Heart failure combined with hypertension is a major contributor for elderly patients (≥ 65 years) to in-hospital mortality. However, there are very few models to predict in-hospital mortality in such elderly patients. We aimed to develop ...
