BACKGROUND: Predicting 30-day hospital readmissions is crucial for improving patient outcomes, optimizing resource allocation, and achieving financial savings. Existing studies reporting the development of machine learning (ML) models predictive of ...
To investigate the factors that influence readmissions in patients with acute non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by using multiple machine learning (ML) methods to establish a predictive mod...
BACKGROUND: Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of heart failure (HF), and tools are needed to identify patients with a higher probability of developing HF after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven to be ...
AIMS: There is a lack of tools for accurately identifying the risk of readmission for heart failure in elderly patients with arrhythmia. The aim of this study was to establish and compare the performance of the LACE [length of stay ('L'), acute (emer...
BACKGROUND: The frequency of anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has increased up to 400% since 2011, underscoring the need to preoperatively anticipate adverse postoperative outcomes given the procedure's expanding use. Our study aims to ...
The increasing prevalence of overcrowding in Emergency Departments (EDs) threatens the effective delivery of urgent healthcare. Mitigation strategies include the deployment of monitoring systems capable of tracking and managing patient disposition to...

BACKGROUND: The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) imposes payment penalties for readmissions following total joint replacement surgeries. This study focuses on total hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty procedures as they account for mo...
INTRODUCTION: Heart failure (HF) is a major global public health concern. The application of machine learning (ML) to identify individuals at high risk and enable early intervention is a promising approach for improving HF prognosis. We aim to system...
BACKGROUND: High-risk emergency department (ED) revisit is considered an important quality indicator that may reflect an increase in complications and medical burden. However, because of its multidimensional and highly complex nature, this factor has...
OBJECTIVE: Chiari malformation type I (CM-I) is a congenital disorder occurring in 0.1% of the population. In symptomatic cases, surgery with posterior fossa decompression (PFD) is the treatment of choice. Surgery is, however, associated with peri- a...
