BACKGROUND: Delirium is a prevalent phenomenon among patients admitted to the geriatric intensive care unit (ICU) and can adversely impact prognosis and augment the risk of complications.
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop an innovative early prediction model for acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery in intensive care unit (ICU) settings, leveraging preoperative and postoperative clinical variables, and to identify k...
BACKGROUND: Implementing machine learning models to identify clinical deterioration in the wards is associated with decreased morbidity and mortality. However, these models have high false positive rates and only use structured data.
Severe acute kidney injury (sAKI) is a prevalent and serious complication among patients with sepsis-induced myocardial injury (SIMI). Prompt and early prediction of sAKI has an important role in timely intervention, ultimately improving the patients...
BACKGROUND: Risk-prediction models are widely used for quality of care evaluations, resource management, and patient stratification in research. While established models have long been used for risk prediction, healthcare has evolved significantly, a...
Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) patients in the ICU often suffer from sepsis-associated delirium (SAD), which is linked to unfavorable outcomes. This research aimed to develop a machine learning-based model for early SAD prediction in ...

BACKGROUND: Clinical deterioration is often preceded by subtle physiological changes that, if unheeded, can lead to adverse patient outcomes. The precision of traditional scoring systems in detecting these precursors has limitations, prompting the ex...
BACKGROUND: Classification trees (CTs) are widely used machine learning algorithms with growing applications in clinical research, especially for risk stratification. Their ability to generate interpretable decision rules makes them attractive to hea...
Background Stroke is second-leading cause of disability and death among adults. Approximately 17 million people suffer from a stroke annually, with about 85% being ischemic strokes. Predicting mortality of ischemic stroke patients in intensive care u...
OBJECTIVE: Muscle wasting in critically ill patients, particularly those with prolonged hospitalization, poses a significant challenge to recovery and long-term outcomes. The aim of this study was to characterize long-term muscle wasting trajectories...
