Background:Accurate risk stratification of critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)is essential for optimizing resource allocation,delivering targeted interventions,and maximizing patient survival *** learning(ML)techniques are attracting increased interest for the development of prediction models as they excel in the analysis of complex signals in data-rich environments such as critical ***:We retrieved data on patients with COVID-19 admitted to an intensive care unit(ICU)between March and October 2020 from the RIsk Stratification in COVID-19 patients in the Intensive Care Unit(RISC-19-ICU)*** applied the Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost)algorithm to the data to predict as a binary out-come the increase or decrease in patients’Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA)score on day 5 after ICU *** model was iteratively cross-validated in different subsets of the study ***:The final study population consisted of 675 *** XGBoost model correctly predicted a decrease in SOFA score in 320/385(83%)critically ill COVID-19 patients,and an increase in the score in 210/290(72%)*** area under the mean receiver operating characteristic curve for XGBoost was significantly higher than that for the logistic regression model(0.86 vs.0.69,P<0.01[paired t-test with 95%confidence interval]).Conclusions:The XGBoost model predicted the change in SOFA score in critically ill COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU and can guide clinical decision support systems(CDSSs)aimed at optimizing available resources.

Background:In clinical practice,blood pressure is used as a resuscitation goal on a daily basis,with the aim of maintaining adequate perfusion and oxygen delivery to target *** perfusion is often indicated as a key factor in the pathophysiology of anastomotic *** study was aimed at assessing the extent to which the microcirculation of the bowel coheres with blood pressure during abdominal ***:We performed a prospective and observational cohort *** patients undergoing abdominal surgery,the serosal microcirculation of either the small intestine or the colon was visualized using handheld vital mi-croscopy(HVM).From the acquired HVM image sequences,red blood cell velocity(RBCv)and total vessel density(TVD)were calculated using MicroTools and AVA software,*** association between microcircula-tory parameters and blood pressure was assessed using Pearson’s correlation *** considered a two-sided P-value of<0.050 to be ***:In 28 patients undergoing abdominal surgery,a total of 76 HVM images were *** RBCv was 335±96μm/s and the TVD was 13.7±3.4 mm/mm ^(2).Mean arterial pressure(MAP)was 71±12 mm Hg during microcirculatory *** was not correlated with RBCv(Pearson’s r=−0.049,P=0.800)or TVD(Pearson’s r=0.310,P=0.110).Conclusion:In 28 patients undergoing abdominal surgery,we found no association between serosal intestinal microcirculatory parameters and blood pressure.
