Background: Early identification of impending in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) improves clinical outcomes but remains elusive for practicing clinicians.

Objective: We aimed to develop a multimodal machine learning algorithm based on ensemble techniques to predict the occurrence of IHCA.

Methods: Our model was developed by the Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring of Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database and validated in the Electronic Intensive Care Unit Collaborative Research Database (eICU-CRD).

Background: Multiple trauma deserves early prognostication and stratification. Copeptin, a precursor of vasopressin, is produced in response to stress. We examined the association between serum levels of copeptin and mortality risk in patients with multiple trauma.

Little is known about the risk of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) among patients with sepsis. We aimed to characterize the incidence and outcome of IHCA among patients with sepsis in a national database. We then determined the major risk factors associated with IHCA among sepsis patients.

Dysfunction of RBFOX3 has been identified in neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder, cognitive impairments and epilepsy and a causal relationship with these diseases has been previously demonstrated with Rbfox3 homozygous knockout mice. Despite the importance of RBFOX3 during neurodevelopment, the function of RBFOX3 regarding neurogenesis and synaptogenesis remains unclear. To address this critical question, we profiled the developmental expression pattern of Rbfox3 in the brain of wild-type mice and analyzed brain volume, disease-relevant behaviors, neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and synaptogenesis in Rbfox3 homozygous knockout mice and their corresponding wild-type counterparts.
