Machine learning models to predict end-stage kidney disease in chronic kidney disease stage 4.

Link: https://doi.org/10.1186/s12882-023-03424-7 Authors: Takkavatakarn, Kullaya; Oh, Wonsuk; Cheng, Ella; Nadkarni, Girish N; Chan, Lili Abstract: End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Identifying patients with stage 4 CKD (CKD4) at risk of rapid progression to ESKD remains challenging. Accurate prediction of CKD4 progression can improve patient outcomes by improving advanced care…

Post-operative urinary retention is impacted by neuromuscular block reversal agent choice: A retrospective cohort study in US hospital setting.

Link: https://doi.org/S0952-8180(23)00294-5 Authors: Bash, Lori D; Turzhitsky, Vladimir; Mark, Robert J; Hofer, Ira S; Weingarten, Toby N Abstract: Perioperative neuromuscular blocking agents are pharmacologically reversed to minimize complications associated with residual neuromuscular block. Neuromuscular block reversal with anticholinesterases (e.g., neostigmine) require coadministration of an anticholinergic agent (e.g., glycopyrrolate) to mitigate muscarinic activity; however, sugammadex, devoid…

A clustering approach to improve our understanding of the genetic and phenotypic complexity of chronic kidney disease.

Link: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-3424565/v1 Authors: Eoli, Andrea; Ibing, Susanne; Schurmann, Claudia; Nadkarni, Girish N; Heyne, Henrike; Böttinger, Erwin Abstract: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex disorder that causes a gradual loss of kidney function, affecting approximately 9.1% of the world’s population. Here, we use a soft-clustering algorithm to deconstruct its genetic heterogeneity. First, we selected 322…
