BACKGROUND: The choice between cemented and cementless fixation in primary elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains a subject of ongoing debate. However, comparisons between the two are subject to limited adjustments for patient characteristics,...
This study aimed to develop and validate machine learning (ML) models to predict the occurrence of delayed hyponatremia after transsphenoidal surgery for pituitary adenoma. We retrospectively collected clinical data on patients with pituitary adenoma...
INTRODUCTION: Understanding 1-year mortality following major surgery offers valuable insights into patient outcomes and the quality of peri-operative care. Few models exist that predict 1-year mortality accurately. This study aimed to develop a predi...
BACKGROUND: To summarize the statistical performance of machine learning in predicting revision, secondary knee injury, or reoperations following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), and to provide a general overview of the statistical p...
BACKGROUND: Arrhythmia is a frequent complication following transcatheter device closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects (pmVSD). However, there is currently a lack of a convenient tool for predicting postoperative arrhythmia.
INTRODUCTION: Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is associated with a high risk of postoperative complications (PoCs) and risk prediction of these is therefore critical for optimal treatment plannin...

OBJECTIVE: Varicose vein ablation is generally indicated in patients with active/healed venous ulcers. However, patient selection for intervention in individuals without venous ulcers is less clear. Tools that predict lack of clinical improvement (LC...
INTRODUCTION: As surgical accessibility improves, the incidence of postoperative complications is expected to rise. The implementation of a precise and objective risk stratification tool holds the potential to mitigate these complications by early id...
INTRODUCTION: Congenital heart disease (CHD) represents the most common group of congenital anomalies, constitutes a significant contributor to the burden of non-communicable diseases, highlighting the critical need for improved risk assessment tools...
BACKGROUND: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a common severe complication after radical nephrectomy in patients with renal cancer. The timely and accurate prediction of the long-term progression of renal function post-surgery is crucial for early inte...
