BACKGROUND: The primary objective was to develop and test an artificial neural network (ANN) that learns and predicts length of stay (LOS), inpatient charges, and discharge disposition for total hip arthroplasty. The secondary objective was to create...
OBJECTIVE: To predict the local recurrence of giant cell bone tumors (GCTB) on MR features and the clinical characteristics after curettage using a deep convolutional neural network (CNN).

OBJECTIVES: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are precursor lesions of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a mathematical concept whose implementation automates learning and recognizing data patterns. The aim of ...
OBJECTIVE: To accurately calculate the risk for postoperative complications and death after surgery in the preoperative period using machine-learning modeling of clinical data.
Operating room (OR) utilization is a significant determinant of hospital profitability. One aspect of this is surgical scheduling, which depends on accurate predictions of case duration. This has been done historically by either the surgeon based on ...

Isocitrate dehydrogenase () mutations in glioma patients confer longer survival and may guide treatment decision making. We aimed to predict the status of gliomas from MR imaging by applying a residual convolutional neural network to preoperative r...
AIMS: ALB is the most commonly used drug for the treatment of echinococcosis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of ALB using the intraoperative and perioperative periods as dual therapy.
Surgical site infection (SSI) is a common cause of morbidity in general and vascular surgery patients. There is inconsistent evidence on the association of glycemic status with SSI, and its utility in predicting and mitigating SSI. General and vascul...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patterns, classified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) or continence, preoperatively and after robot-assisted laparoscopi...
