BACKGROUND: It is difficult to identify patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) most likely to respond to ablation. While any arrhythmia patient may recur after acutely successful ablation, AF is unusual in that patients may have long-term arrhythmia ...
Although rare diseases (RDs) affect over 260 million individuals worldwide, low data quality and scarcity challenge effective care and research. This work aims to harmonise the Common Data Set by European Rare Disease Registry Infrastructure, Health ...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Mechanical Thrombectomy (MT) has recently become the standard of care for anterior circulation stroke with large vessel occlusion, but predictive factors of successful MT are still not clearly defined. To tailor treatment indi...
Predicting the outcome of a kidney transplant involving a living donor advances donor decision-making donors for clinicians and patients. However, the discriminative or calibration capacity of the currently employed models are limited. We set out to...
