Improving ACS prediction in T2DM patients by addressing false records in electronic medical records using propensity score.

Scientific reports
Our study aims to improve the prediction performance of machine learning (ML) models by addressing false records (i.e., false positive, false negative, or missingness) in binary categorical variables in electronic medical records (EMRs) using propens...

Association between fibrinogen levels and prognosis in critically bleeding patients: exploration of the optimal therapeutic threshold.

European journal of trauma and emergency surgery : official publication of the European Trauma Society
BACKGROUND: Severe bleeding is a leading cause of ICU admission and mortality. Fibrinogen plays a crucial role in prognosis, yet optimal thresholds and supplementation targets remain unclear.

Updated perspectives on visceral pleural invasion in non-small cell lung cancer: A propensity score-matched analysis of the SEER database.

Current problems in cancer
BACKGROUND: Visceral pleural invasion (VPI), including PL1 (the tumor invades beyond the elastic layer) and PL2 (the tumor extends to the surface of the visceral pleura), plays a crucial role in staging Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). However, th...

Effects of robot-assisted gait training within 1 week after stroke onset on degree of gait independence in individuals with hemiparesis: a propensity score-matched analysis in a single-center cohort study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is an effective method for treating gait disorders in individuals with stroke. However, no previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of RAGT in individuals with acute stroke. This study aimed...

Development and evaluation of a multivariable prediction model for overall survival in advanced stage pulmonary carcinoid using machine learning.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
BACKGROUND: Evidence is limited on whether patients with advanced pulmonary carcinoid (APC) benefit from comprehensive pulmonary resection (CPR), chemotherapy, or radiotherapy. Existing prognostic models for APC are limited and do not guide treatment...

Impact of Sepsis Onset Timing on All-Cause Mortality in Acute Pancreatitis: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study.

Journal of intensive care medicine
BackgroundSepsis complicates acute pancreatitis (AP), increasing mortality risk. Few studies have examined how sepsis and its onset timing affect mortality in AP. This study evaluates the association between sepsis occurrence and all-cause mortality ...

Causal Machine Learning for Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation.

JACC. Clinical electrophysiology
BACKGROUND: Transcatheter left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is an alternative to lifelong anticoagulation, but optimal patient selection remains challenging.

Interpretable machine learning-derived nomogram model for early detection of persistent diarrhea in Salmonella typhimurium enteritis: a propensity score matching based case-control study.

BMC infectious diseases
BACKGROUND: Salmonella typhimurium infection is a considerable global health concern, particularly in children, where it often leads to persistent diarrhea. This condition can result in severe health complications including malnutrition and cognitive...

Adverse Outcomes after Cemented and Cementless Primary Elective Total Hip Arthroplasty in 60,064 Matched Patients: A Study of Data from the Swedish Arthroplasty Register.

The Journal of arthroplasty
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,...
