A machine learning-based model for predicting the risk of cognitive frailty in elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis.

Scientific reports
Elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) face a heightened risk of cognitive frailty (CF), which significantly compromises quality of life. Early identification of at-risk individuals and timely intervention are essential. Neverthel...

Prognostic Features for Overall Survival in Male Diabetic Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis Using Elastic Net Penalized Cox Regression; A Machine Learning Approach.

Archives of Iranian medicine
BACKGROUND: Diabetics constitute a significant percentage of hemodialysis (HD) patients with higher mortality, especially among male patients. A machine learning algorithm was used to optimize the prediction of time to death in male diabetic hemodial...

Hope for the best prepare for the worst: acute kidney disease and catastrophic comorbidities (a case report).

The Pan African medical journal
It is evident that Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is an independent risk factor for both the survival of patients and their kidneys. Here, we present a case of oliguric AKI secondary to blunt trauma-induced crush syndrome complicated with severe sepsis in...

Predicting high-flow arteriovenous fistulas and cardiac outcomes in hemodialysis patients.

Journal of vascular surgery
BACKGROUND: Heart failure is common in patients receiving hemodialysis. A high-flow arteriovenous fistula (AVF) may represent a modifiable risk factor for heart failure and death. Currently, no tools exist to assess the risk of developing a high-flow...

Using machine learning models for predicting monthly iPTH levels in hemodialysis patients.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), also known as active parathyroid hormone, is an important indicator commonly for monitoring secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The aim of this study w...

Predicting early mortality in hemodialysis patients: a deep learning approach using a nationwide prospective cohort in South Korea.

Scientific reports
Early mortality after hemodialysis (HD) initiation significantly impacts the longevity of HD patients. This study aimed to quantify the effect sizes of risk factors on mortality using various machine learning approaches. A cohort of 3284 HD patients ...

Prediction of dialysis adequacy using data-driven machine learning algorithms.

Renal failure
BACKGROUND: Adequate delivery of hemodialysis (HD), measured by the spKt/V derived from urea reduction, is an important determinant of clinical outcomes in chronic hemodialysis patients. However, the need for pre- and postdialysis blood samples preve...

Optimizing anemia management using artificial intelligence for patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Scientific reports
Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) frequently experience anemia, and maintaining hemoglobin (Hb) levels within a targeted range using erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) is challenging. This study introduces a gated recurrent unit-att...

Interpretable machine learning models for the prediction of all-cause mortality and time to death in hemodialysis patients.

Therapeutic apheresis and dialysis : official peer-reviewed journal of the International Society for Apheresis, the Japanese Society for Apheresis, the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy
INTRODUCTION: The elevated mortality and hospitalization rates among hemodialysis (HD) patients underscore the necessity for the development of accurate predictive tools. This study developed two models for predicting all-cause mortality and time to ...

Prediction of Vascular Access Stenosis by Lightweight Convolutional Neural Network Using Blood Flow Sound Signals.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This research examines the application of non-invasive acoustic analysis for detecting obstructions in vascular access (fistulas) used by kidney dialysis patients. Obstructions in these fistulas can interrupt essential dialysis treatment. In this stu...
