Background Social risk factors influence rehospitalization rates yet are challenging to incorporate into prediction models. Integration of social risk factors using natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning could improve risk prediction ...
INTRODUCTION: Despite advances, readmission and mortality rates for surgical patients with colon cancer remain high. Prediction models using regression techniques allows for risk stratification to aid periprocedural care. Technological advances have ...

OBJECTIVES: Despite increasing use of robotic technology for minimally invasive hysterectomy with sacrocolpopexy, evidence supporting the benefits of these costly procedures remains inconclusive. This study aimed to compare differences in perioperati...
Short-term reattendances to emergency departments are a key quality of care indicator. Identifying patients at increased risk of early reattendance could help reduce the number of missed critical illnesses and could reduce avoidable utilization of em...
