BACKGROUND: Anastomotic strictures (AS) frequently occurs in patients following esophageal cancer surgery, significantly affecting their long-term quality of life. This study aims to develop a machine learning model to predict high-risk AS, enabling ...
BACKGROUND: Traditional risk models, such as POSSUM and OS-MS, have limited accuracy in predicting complications after bariatric surgery. Machine learning (ML) offers new opportunities for personalized risk assessment by incorporating artificial inte...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) has revolutionized the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. Although its clinical efficacy is well established, the development of new-onset left bundle branch block (LBBB) following...
INTRODUCTION: Current decision support tools designed to predict postoperative complications, following cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC), are limited by small sample sizes and lack of external validatio...
OBJECTIVE: Diabetes Insipidus (DI) is a common complication that occurs following transsphenoidal surgery for sellar lesions. DI is usually transient but can be permanent in select patients. Prior studies have described preoperative risk factors for ...
