One-day-ahead prediction of severe hyponatremia in patients with cancer using medication and diagnostic trajectories without electrolyte indicators
Intro Hyponatremia is a common complication in patients with cancer and is associated with poor prognosis; however, early detection remains challenging. Existing models often rely on laboratory parameters directly related to sodium levels, limiting early risk identification before electrolyte testing. This study developed a machine learning model to predict severe hyponatremia 1 day before its occurrence using longitudinal prescription and diagnostic data without relying on serum electrolyte variables. Methods T…
A gradient-boosting model using only 30-day prescription and diagnosis trajectories predicted severe hyponatremia one day ahead with an AUC of 0.853, close to a lab-inclusive model's 0.862.
The study is retrospective and from a single center, and the authors state that its use for targeted testing and earlier intervention depends on external validation.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1745 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
