Retrospective study. ⋯ The combination of the XGBoost model with the SHAP is an effective tool for predicting the risk of CSFL during lumbar fusion surgery. Its implementation could aid clinicians in making informed decisions, potentially enhancing patient outcomes and lowering healthcare expenses. This study advocates for the adoption of this approach in clinical settings to enhance the evaluation of CSFL risk among patients undergoing lumbar fusion.

Objective intra-operative performance metrics are an new resource for the field of surgical data science. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive review to analyze the existing literature on robotic surgical objective performance indicators (OPIs). ⋯ Clinically, OPIs have been utilized to predict post-operative patient outcomes and measure intra-operative efficiency. OPIs have shown promise in preliminary surgical education and patient outcomes related studies, and further multi-center collaborative research will be imperative to validate the use of OPIs in the field of surgery.

Association Between Glycemic Variability and Persistent Acute Kidney Injury After Noncardiac Major Surgery: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study.
While the relationship between glycemic variability (GV) and acute kidney injury (AKI) has been a subject of interest, the specific association of GV with persistent AKI beyond 48 hours postoperative after noncardiac surgery is not well-established. ⋯ GV measured within 48 hours postoperative period is an independent risk factor for persistent AKI in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Specific cutoff points can be used to stratify at-risk patients. These findings indicate that stabilizing GV may potentially mitigate adverse kidney outcomes after noncardiac surgery, highlighting the importance of glycemic control in the perioperative period.
