Vesicoureteral reflux and Urinary tract infection
| Article DOI | https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpurol.2015.03.006 |
| Objective | To predict VUR grade from renal and bladder ultrasound findings |
| AI Approach | ANN |
| Data Source(s) | Institutional series (2259 children) |
| Model Input | Renal and bladder ultrasound findings, sex, age, circumcision status, febrile UTI history, first vs. recurrent UTI |
| Model Outcome | Any VUR VUR grade > 2 VUR grade > 3 |
| Model Metrics | Any VUR; AUROC = 0.69 VUR grade > 2; AUROC = 0.67 VUR grade > 3; AUROC = 0.79 |
| Model Usability | NA |
AI = Artificial intelligence, CKD = Chronic Kidney Disease, RRT = Renal Replacement Therapy, CIC = Clean intermittent catherization, VUR = Vesicoureteral Reflux, VCUG = Voiding cystourethrogram
