BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major cardiovascular issue in critically ill patients, linked to elevated mortality rates. The Stress Hyperglycemia Ratio (SHR), a novel metric of glucose control, has shown promise in predicting adverse outc...
INTRODUCTION: Prognosis estimation is the basis for establishing the personal interventions in sepsis patients. Serum biomarkers are potential tools for predicting the outcomes of sepsis patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Here, we pl...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Acute-on-chronic liver failure is a syndrome characterized by organ failure and high short-term mortality. The lack of reliable biomarkers for the early detection of acute-on-chronic liver failure is a significant challenge. Endoth...

OBJECTIVES: Timely and accurate prediction of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is essential for the rescue and treatment of trauma patients However, existing methods are invasive, easily affected by artifacts and can be difficult to perform...
BACKGROUND: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder of the red blood cells, resulting in multiple acute and chronic complications, including pain episodes, stroke, and kidney disease. Patients with SCD develop chronic organ dysfunction, which...
The immune response to major trauma has been analysed mainly within post-hospital admission settings where the inflammatory response is already underway and the early drivers of clinical outcome cannot be readily determined. Thus, there is a need to ...
BACKGROUND: Multiple organ failure (MOF) is a serious complication of moderately severe (MASP) and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). This study aimed to develop and assess three machine-learning models to predict MOF.
OBJECTIVE: Machine learning techniques have demonstrated superior discrimination compared to conventional statistical approaches in predicting trauma death. The objective of this study is to evaluate whether machine learning algorithms can be used to...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Critical care patient events like sepsis or septic shock in intensive care units (ICUs) are dangerous complications which can cause multiple organ failures and eventual death. Preventive prediction of such events will allow ...
Corticosteroids decrease the duration of organ dysfunction in sepsis and a range of overlapping and complementary infectious critical illnesses, including septic shock, pneumonia and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The risk and benefi...
