Artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly important role in many fields of clinical care to assist health care providers in patient management. In adult-focused nephrology, artificial intelligence is beginning to be used to improve clinical ...
Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality occur with an extraordinarily high incidence in the hemodialysis-dependent end-stage kidney disease population. There is a clear need to improve identification of those individuals at the highest risk of cardiov...
Artificial intelligence technology is trending in nearly every medical area. It offers the possibility for improving analytics, therapy outcome, and user experience during therapy. In dialysis, the application of artificial intelligence as a therapy-...
BACKGROUND: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access (VA) for hemodialysis, but it is associated with high non-maturation and failure rates. Predicting patient-specific AVF maturation and postoperative changes in blood flow volume...
Urothelial carcinoma (UC) could be observed in urinary bladder (UBUC) and upper urinary tracts (UTUC). In the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines for bladder cancer, extirpative surgery is indicated in certain cases. However, some extrem...
BACKGROUND: Machine Learning has been increasingly used in the medical field, including managing patients undergoing hemodialysis. The random forest classifier is a Machine Learning method that can generate high accuracy and interpretability in the d...

BACKGROUND: Although the MEST-C classification is among the best prognostic tools in immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), it has a wide interobserver variability between specialized pathologists and others. Therefore we trained and evaluated a tool u...
Intradialytic hypotension is common in patients who are on hemodialysis. We applied deep learning techniques to ECGs to predict patients at risk of IDH. The performance of the model was good with an AUC of 0.763 and AUPRC of 0.35.
