AIM: Well-leg compartment syndrome (WLCS) is a serious complication of prolonged surgery in the head-down tilt lithotomy (HDTL) position associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. However, there is a lack of awareness and clinic...
INTRODUCTION: Sarcopenia, or the loss of muscle quality and quantity, has been associated with poor clinical outcomes in liver transplantation such as infection, increased length of stay, and increased patient mortality. Abdominal computed tomography...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to develop and compare 4 predictive algorithms, including logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), gradient boosting machine (GBM), and neural network (NN), for perioperative outcomes in adult spinal deformit...
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 ...
