BACKGROUND: The prevalence of depression symptoms, the third most disabling disease worldwide, is as high as 11.5%-21.1% in China's middle-aged and elderly population and increases significantly with age. It is crucial to identify high-risk groups ef...
BACKGROUND: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder that adversely affects the quality of life, particularly in older adults. The coexistence of depression in asthma patients complicates their management and exacerbates health outcomes. This study ...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) can result in long-term sequelae, such as post-PE syndrome, including persistent dyspnea and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Existing prediction tools for severe post-PE complications lack sensitivity an...
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive disorder characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure and increased pulmonary vascular resistance, ultimately leading to right heart failure. Early detection is critical for improving pa...
We read with interest the recent article by Yu et al., "Interpretable machine learning model predicts 1-year inguinal hernia risk after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy" (DOI: 10.1007/s11701-025-02723-5) , which represents an important step in ap...
BACKGROUND: Classification of risk levels in patients with acute pancreatitis remains a difficult task. Although some biomarkers have emerged to predict the prognosis of patients with acute pancreatitis, they have not been widely used in clinical pra...
BACKGROUND: Stroke remains a global health challenge with high rates of mortality and rehospitalization placing significant demands on healthcare systems. Identifying factors that determine outcomes of post-hospitalization improves resource allocatio...
BACKGROUND: Motor proteins play significant roles in cancer progression, but their involvement in biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer remains unclear. The objective of the study is to develop a prognostic indicator for BCR using machine l...
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), particularly in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), pose significant challenges due to neonates' vulnerability and the rapid infection spread. However, risk factors facilitating pathogen persistence and dis...
This study aimed to develop a predictive model and construct a graded nomogram to estimate the risk of severe acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients without preexisting kidney dysfunction undergoing liver transplantation (LT). Patients undergoing LT b...
