Machine learning and transformer models for prediction of postoperative pneumonia risk in patients with lower limb fractures.

Scientific reports
Postoperative pneumonia, a prevalent complication arising from lower limb fracture surgery, can significantly prolong hospitalization periods and elevate mortality rates. Consequently, early prevention and identification of this condition are crucial...

Mitochondrial haplogroup A2 is associated with increased COVID-19 mortality in an admixed Brazilian population.

Scientific reports
Mitochondria play a crucial role in cellular respiration and immune responses. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups and variants have been associated with various diseases, including COVID-19. This study analyzed complete mtDNA sequences from 467 Br...

Developed a knowledge base of risk factors for postoperative cognitive dysfunction: a retrospective database study.

Scientific reports
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), a heterogeneous spectrum of surgery/anesthesia-associated neurocognitive impairments, represents a critical clinical challenge due to its associations with prolonged hospitalization, increased mortality, an...

Proteomic risk scores for predicting common diseases using linear and neural network models in the UK biobank.

Scientific reports
Plasma proteomics provides a unique opportunity to enhance disease prediction by capturing protein expression patterns linked to diverse pathological processes. Leveraging data from 2,923 proteins measured in 53,030 UK Biobank participants, we develo...

Modeling the prediction of spontaneous rupture and bleeding in hepatocellular carcinoma via machine learning algorithms.

Scientific reports
This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with spontaneous rupture and bleeding in hepatocellular carcinoma, establish a prediction model for spontaneous rupture bleeding via a machine learning algorithm, and validate and evaluate the ...

Establishment of a machine learning-based predictive model with dual-center external validation: investigating the role of robotic surgery in preventing delayed gastric emptying for right-sided colon cancer.

Journal of robotic surgery
After colorectal surgery, delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a clinically significant postoperative complication that significantly lowers patients' quality of life. The evolving application of robotic surgery in gastrointestinal oncology continues to...

Screening of Glaucoma in High-Risk Minority Populations.

Journal of glaucoma
PRECIS: This chapter reviews the current recommendations on screening for open angle glaucoma in Black and Hispanic populations. Strategies for increasing case-finding and decreasing cost, with emphasis on evolving technologies, are presented.

Predictive modeling for early detection of refractory esophageal stricture following esophageal atresia surgery: insight from a machine learning study.

Pediatric surgery international
BACKGROUND: Refractory esophageal stricture (RES) presents a challenging complication after esophageal atresia (EA) repair. Earlier identification of patients with RES could help clinical decision-making. However, there are currently limited articles...

Renal Dysfunction Across the Spectrum of Cardiogenic Shock: Mechanisms, Clinical Implications, and Therapeutic Strategies.

Current heart failure reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review aims to elucidate the complex interplay between cardiogenic shock (CS) and renal function, detailing the mechanisms of kidney injury, identifying risk factors, and providing a framework for the diagnosis and management ...

Mortality risk associated with clinical signs of possible serious bacterial infection (PSBI) in young infants in Africa and Asia: protocol for a secondary pooled analysis.

BMJ open
INTRODUCTION: The WHO's Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) in young infants <2 months of age includes the identification and management of signs of possible serious bacterial infection (PSBI). However, equal importance is given to all ...
