BACKGROUND: This study addresses the critical need for timely and accurate diagnosis of early postoperative infection (EPI) following cardiac surgery. EPI significantly impacts patient outcomes and healthcare costs, making its early detection vital.
BACKGROUND: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its surgery significantly increase the venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk. This study explored the VTE risk factors and established a machine-learning model to predict a failure of postoperative throm...
BACKGROUND: Accurate risk prediction for patients undergoing breast reconstruction with tissue expanders (TEs) can improve patient counseling and shared decision-making. This study aimed to develop and evaluate traditional statistical and machine lea...

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic fundoplication remains the gold standard treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, 10% to 20% of patients experience new, persistent, or recurrent symptoms warranting further treatment. Potential predictors for ...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review explores advances in risk stratification tools and their applicability in identifying and managing high-risk emergency general surgery (EGS) patients.
BACKGROUND: Postoperative pulmonary infection (POI) is strongly associated with a poor prognosis and has a high incidence in elderly patients undergoing major surgery. Machine learning (ML) algorithms are increasingly being used in medicine, but the ...
PURPOSES: Postoperative complications in patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) negatively impact surgical outcomes and may necessitate redo surgery. We aimed to predict the occurrence of postoperative complications in these patients...

OBJECTIVE: Postoperative delirium, a common neurocognitive complication after surgery and anesthesia, requires early detection for potential intervention. Herein, we constructed a multidimensional postoperative delirium risk-prediction model incorpor...
INTRODUCTION: Transient stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after holmium laser enucleation of prostate (HoLEP) is commonly linked to intraoperative injury of the external urethral sphincter (EUS). We assessed the reliability of the post-HoLEP endoscop...
BACKGROUND: Post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a complex complication, often characterized by potentially severe hypoglycemic episodes and reduced hypoglycemia awareness. Recent findings suggest that autonomic ...
