BACKGROUND: The 30-day hospital readmission rate is a key indicator of healthcare quality and system efficiency. This study aimed to develop machine-learning (ML) models to predict unplanned 30-day readmissions in older patients with ischemic stroke ...
INTRODUCTION: Transformer-based large language models (LLMs) have transformed the field of natural language processing and led to significant advancements in various text processing tasks. However, the applicability of these LLMs in identifying relat...
BACKGROUND: Postdischarge venous thromboembolism (pdVTE) is a life-threatening complication following resection for pancreatic cancer (PC). While national guidelines recommend extended chemoprophylaxis for all, adherence is low and ranges from 1.5 to...
OBJECTIVE: While many machine learning and deep learning-based models for clinical event prediction leverage various data elements from electronic healthcare records such as patient demographics and billing codes, such models face severe challenges w...
BACKGROUND: Older persons comprise most traumatic brain injury (TBI)-related hospitalizations and deaths and are particularly susceptible to fall-induced TBIs. The combination of increased frailty and susceptibility to clinical decline creates a sign...
