BACKGROUND: Upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is a common medical emergency. This study aimed to develop models to predict critically ill patients with upper GI bleeding in-hospital and 30-day survival, identify the correlation factor and infer th...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to predict mortality in children with pneumonia who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) to aid decision-making.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We selectively review emerging noninvasive neuromonitoring techniques and the evidence that supports their use in the ICU setting. The focus is on neuromonitoring research in patients with acute brain injury.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Delirium, recognized as a crucial prognostic factor in the cardiac intensive care unit (CICU), has evolved in response to the changing demographics among critically ill cardiac patients. This study aimed to create a predi...
OBJECTIVES: Natural language processing (NLP) of clinical notes in electronic medical records is increasingly used to extract otherwise sparsely available patient characteristics, to assess their association with relevant health outcomes. Manual data...
BACKGROUND: Language in nonmedical data sets is known to transmit human-like biases when used in natural language processing (NLP) algorithms that can reinforce disparities. It is unclear if NLP algorithms of medical notes could lead to similar trans...
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...
