Predicting in-hospital death in pneumonic COPD exacerbation via BAP-65, CURB-65 and machine learning

Introduction There is no established clinical prediction model for in-hospital death among patients with pneumonic COPD exacerbation. We aimed to externally validate BAP-65 and CURB-65 and to develop a new model based on the eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) algorithm. Methods This multicentre coh...
