Article Synopsis
  • The review analyzes the use of machine learning (ML) versus classical regression methods for predicting pre-eclampsia, finding that ML shows superior performance in many cases.
  • Out of 9382 studies, 82 were selected; most utilized classical models, but ML algorithms like random forest and extreme gradient boosting achieved high accuracy (AUC values of 0.94 and 0.92, respectively).
  • The review recommends further research to directly compare ML and classical methods using consistent samples and metrics, along with a need for external validation of ML models to establish their general applicability in healthcare settings.
