of a nomogram for predicting catheter-related complications after percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage in malignant obstructive jaundice patients: A retrospective study

Machine Learning Models for Predicting Response to Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Drainage in Malignant Obstructive Jaundice: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Pre-procedural ML-based prediction of PTBD response is feasible with a modest AUC, and logistic regression generalises most reliably in this small, class-imbalanced dataset.

Safety of Early Catheter Removal After Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Drainage in Acute Cholangitis: A Retrospective Single-Center Cohort Study

Background/Objectives: No current guideline specifies the timing of catheter removal after percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD). This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of early PTBD catheter removal after resolution of biliary obstruction in patients with acute cholangitis. Methods: This retros...

A non-invasive nomogram for high-risk esophageal varices in cirrhosis without transient elastography: development and internal validation

A simple nomogram based on routine clinical and ultrasonographic variables stratified HREV risk and outperformed established biochemical scores and is proposed for prioritising endoscopy where transient elastography is unavailable, rather than as a substitute for Baveno-based rule-out strategies.

Development and Validation of a Multivariate Nomogram for Predicting Post-ERCP Pancreatitis: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

AIM To identify predictors of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) and to develop a multivariate prediction model by comprehensively evaluating clinical characteristics, procedure-related factors, and inflammatory biomarkers, including C-reactive protein (CRP)-to-lymphocyte rati...

Preoperative prediction model for critical view of safety achievement in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a retrospective cohort study.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided versus percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage in surgically high-risk patients with acute cholecystitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) has been the conventional non-operative option for acute cholecystitis in patients at high surgical risk, but endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) with lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) is increasingly preferred because it removes the extern...
