Advancing 90-day mortality and anastomotic leakage predictions after oesophagectomy for cancer using Explainable Artificial Intelligence
Introduction: Oesophageal resection carries significant morbidity and mortality. Artificial intelligence (AI) advances in medical research enable enhanced predictions, flexibility, and interpretability, especially for complex interactions and nonlinear relationships. Material and methods: We used a register-based case-control design nested within prospectively collected data from the Swedish Natio
