Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and sepsis are the leading causes of high mortality rates in intensive care units. While sepsis frequently affects the cardiovascular system, distinguishing between sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy and AMI remains chall...
INTRODUCTION: As surgical accessibility improves, the incidence of postoperative complications is expected to rise. The implementation of a precise and objective risk stratification tool holds the potential to mitigate these complications by early id...
BACKGROUND: ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is a common complication among ICU patients. We used machine learning techniques to construct an ICU-AW inflammatory factor prediction model to predict the risk of disease development and reduce the incidenc...
BACKGROUND: The incidence and mortality of first-ever strokes have risen sharply, especially in the intensive care unit (ICU). Emerging surrogate for insulin resistance, triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), has been linked to stroke prognosis. We aims t...

BACKGROUND: Blood transfusion (BT) is a critical aspect of medical care for surgical patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Timely and accurate identification of BT needs can enhance patient outcomes and healthcare resource management.
BACKGROUND: Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is the favored renal replacement therapy in critically ill patients. Predicting clinical outcomes for CRRT patients is difficult due to population heterogeneity, varying clinical practices, and ...

BACKGROUND: The incidence, mortality, and readmission rates for acute heart failure (AHF) are high, and the in-hospital mortality for AHF patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) is higher. However, there is currently no method to accurately predict...
BACKGROUND: Predicting in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) is crucial for potentially reducing mortality and improving patient outcomes. However, most models, which rely solely on vital signs, may not comprehensively capture the patients' risk profiles...
INTRODUCTION: In sepsis treatment, achieving and maintaining effective antibiotic therapy is crucial. However, optimal antibiotic dosing faces challenges due to significant variability among patients with sepsis. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), th...
