TL;DR
No score reliably predicted ICU admission in emergency department patients with upper GIB and lower GIB between January 2014 and March 2025, indicating a persistent gap in pre-interventional risk stratification.
INTRODUCTION Bleeding-specific risk scores are widely used in upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) but were primarily developed in non-critically ill populations. We compared the prognostic performance of the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score with bleeding-specific scores in patients with UGIB requirin...
Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) requires early risk stratification, but commonly used scores were developed for different clinical moments and endpoints. We compared albumin, international normalized ratio, mental status, systolic blood pressure, age ≥65 years (AIMS65), Glasgow-Blatchford score (GBS), pre-Baylor...
Early mortality risk assessment is crucial for acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB). This study sought to develop and internally validate a prediction model using age, pulse, urea, and albumin (APUA) components, and to assess the added value of admission lactate levels. This retrospective, single-center study i...
Background/Objectives: Early risk stratification is essential in pulmonary embolism (PE), but a simple tool integrating routinely available clinical and laboratory variables is lacking. We aimed to develop a simple score for predicting 30-day mortality in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with PE. Me...
Multidimensional validation demonstrated that this model exhibited superior discrimination, calibration, and net clinical benefit compared with any single score, and thus can be applied for early risk stratification at admission.
Background/Objectives: The Hemoglobin–Albumin–Lymphocyte–Platelet (HALP) score integrates hematologic, nutritional, immune, and platelet parameters, but its prognostic value in acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) remains uncertain. We compared the performance of HALP with AIMS65, Glasgow–Blatchford Score (GBS)...
