Integrated Transcriptomic and Machine-Learning Analyses Identify Shared Na+ Overload-Related Gene Signatures in Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Ankylosing Spondylitis

Background: Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) exhibit substantial pathophysiological overlap, including dysregulated innate immunity, barrier dysfunction, and Th17-mediated inflammation. However, whether Na+ overload-related genes (NRGs) exhibit sha...

Development of machine learning models for predicting delirium in elderly patients after thoracic surgeries

Postoperative delirium (POD) is a frequent neurological complication following anesthesia and surgery, which is associated with increased comorbidities and mortality. The current study developed and internally validated a machine learning model for predicting POD in elderly patie...
