Machine Learning Model Validated to Predict Outcomes of Liver Transplantation Recipients with Hepatitis C: The Romanian National Transplant Agency Cohort Experience.
Observational study in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesIn the early period after liver transplantation, patients are exposed to a high rate of complications and several scores are currently available to predict adverse postoperative outcomes. However, an ideal, universally accepted and validated score to predict adverse events in liver transplant recipients with hepatitis C is lacking. Therefore, we aimed to establish and validate a machine learning (ML) model to predict short-term outcomes of hepatitis C patients who underwent liver transplantation. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe conducted a retrospective observational two-center cohort study involving hepatitis C patients who underwent liver transplantation. Based on clinical and laboratory parameters, the dataset was used to train a deep-learning model for predicting short-term postoperative complications (within one month following liver transplantation). Adverse events prediction in the postoperative setting was the primary study outcome.
resultsA total of 90 liver transplant recipients with hepatitis C were enrolled in the present study, 80 patients in the training cohort and ten in the validation cohort, respectively. The age range of the participants was 12-68 years, 51 (56,7%) were male, and 39 (43.3%) were female. Throughout the 85 training epochs, the model achieved a very good performance, with the accuracy ranging between 99.76% and 100%. After testing the model on the validation set, the deep-learning classifier confirmed the performance in predicting postoperative complications, achieving an accuracy of 100% on unseen data.
conclusionsWe successfully developed a ML model to predict postoperative complications following liver transplantation in hepatitis C patients. The model demonstrated an excellent performance for accurate adverse event prediction. Consequently, the present study constitutes the foundation for careful and non-invasive identification of high-risk patients who might benefit from a more intensive postoperative monitoring strategy.
