BACKGROUND: Current strategies for risk stratification and prediction of neonatal early-onset sepsis (EOS) are inefficient and lack diagnostic performance. The aim of this study was to use machine learning to analyze the diagnostic accuracy of risk f...
PURPOSE: The ability to accurately predict an individual's risk for cancer is critical to the implementation of precision prevention measures. Current cancer risk predictions are frequently made with simple models that use a few proven risk factors, ...
MOTIVATION: Teratogenic drugs can cause severe fetal malformation and therefore have critical impact on the health of the fetus, yet the teratogenic risks are unknown for most approved drugs. This article proposes an explainable machine learning mode...

BACKGROUND: Several factors are associated with an increased risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction revision. However, the ability to accurately translate these factors into a quantifiable risk of revision at a patient-specific level...
BACKGROUND/AIM: The aim of the study was to evaluate the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and discuss whether a uniform prophylaxis for VTE after radical prostatectomy is also suitable for robotic...
PURPOSE: Coronary artery calcium (CAC) quantified on computed tomography (CT) scans is a robust predictor of atherosclerotic coronary disease; however, the feasibility and relevance of quantitating CAC from lung cancer radiotherapy planning CT scans ...
