BACKGROUND: The number of deaths from COVID-19 continues to surge worldwide. In particular, if a patient's condition is sufficiently severe to require invasive ventilation, it is more likely to lead to death than to recovery.
IMPORTANCE: Quality improvement programs for colorectal cancer surgery have been introduced with benchmarking based on quality indicators, such as mortality. Detailed (pre)operative characteristics may offer relevant information for proper case-mix c...

Deep learning models are increasingly studied in the field of critical care. However, due to the lack of external validation and interpretability, it is difficult to generalize deep learning models in critical care senarios. Few works have validated ...
OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to compare the performance of logistic regression and boosted trees for predicting patient mortality from large sets of diagnosis codes in electronic healthcare records.
Stroke is among the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Approximately 20-25% of stroke survivors present severe disability, which is associated with increased mortality risk. Prognostication is inherent in the process of clinical decisi...
OBJECTIVE: Mortality following surgical resection of spinal tumors is a devastating outcome. Naïve Bayes machine learning algorithms may be leveraged in surgical planning to predict mortality. In this investigation, we use a Naïve Bayes classificatio...
The rapid spread of COVID-19 has resulted in the shortage of medical resources, which necessitates accurate prognosis prediction to triage patients effectively. This study used the nationwide cohort of South Korea to develop a machine learning model ...
