BACKGROUND: Identifying key variables is essential for developing clinical outcome prediction models based on high-dimensional electronic medical records (EMR). However, despite the abundance of feature selection (FS) methods available, challenges re...
The healthcare industry is generating a massive volume of data, promising a potential goldmine of information that can be extracted through machine learning (ML) techniques. The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stands out as a focal point within hospitals a...

BACKGROUND: Accurate estimation of resting energy expenditure (REE) is critical for guiding nutritional therapy in critically ill patients. While indirect calorimetry (IC) is the gold standard for REE measurement, it is not routinely feasible in clin...
BACKGROUND: Increasing use of computational methods in health care provides opportunities to address previously unsolvable problems. Machine learning techniques applied to routinely collected data can enhance clinical tools and improve patient outcom...
BACKGROUND: Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) have been identified to aid clinical decision-making, but few studies focus on the application of CDSS in intensive care unit (ICU) delirium, and particularly usability testing is not employed. We ...

Increased monitoring of health-related data for ICU patients holds great potential for the early prediction of medical outcomes. Research on whether the use of clinical notes and concepts from knowledge bases can improve the performance of prediction...
Major advances in managing critically ill patients with liver disease have improved their prognosis and access to intensive care facilities. Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is now a well-defined disease and these patients can be fast-tracked fo...
BACKGROUND: Sepsis, a critical global health challenge, accounted for approximately 20% of worldwide deaths in 2017. Although the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score standardizes the diagnosis of organ dysfunction, early sepsis detection...
INTRODUCTION: Propofol is a widely used sedative-hypnotic agent for critically ill patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Despite its clinical benefits, propofol is associated with increased risks of hypertriglyceridemia. Early ide...
