BACKGROUND: Living kidney donors are screened pre-donation to estimate the risk of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). We evaluate Machine Learning (ML) to predict the progression of kidney function deterioration over time using the estimated GFR (eGFR)...

Apparent treatment-resistant hypertension (aTRH), defined as blood pressure (BP) that remains uncontrolled despite unconfirmed concurrent treatment with three antihypertensives, is associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular and re...

Arterial stiffness is a non-traditional risk factor of cardiovascular disease and may explain part of the excess cardiovascular risk in chronic kidney disease patients. Successful renal transplantation (RT) may restore renal function and improve seve...
OBJECTIVE: This study used random forest model to explore the feasibility of radial artery calcification in prediction of coronary artery calcification in hemodialysis patients.
Both intradialytic hypotension (IDH) and hypertension (IDHTN) are associated with poor outcomes in hemodialysis patients, but a model predicting dual outcomes in real-time has never been developed. Herein, we developed an explainable deep learning mo...
BACKGROUND AND AIM: There are over 60,000 hemodialysis (HD) patients in Türkiye, and the number of patients is increasing yearly. Dialysate flow rate (Qd) is a factor in HD adequacy. Approximately 150 L of water are consumed per session to prepare th...
Intradialytic hypotension is common in patients who are on hemodialysis. We applied deep learning techniques to ECGs to predict patients at risk of IDH. The performance of the model was good with an AUC of 0.763 and AUPRC of 0.35.

Early diagnosis and prediction of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progress within a given duration are critical to ensure personalized treatment, which could improve patients' quality of life and prolong survival time. In this study, we explore the inte...
Urothelial carcinoma (UC) could be observed in urinary bladder (UBUC) and upper urinary tracts (UTUC). In the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines for bladder cancer, extirpative surgery is indicated in certain cases. However, some extrem...
