Objective. To analyze the application value and relevance of risk evaluation system for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) puncture in thrombosis after puncture. Methods. The clinical data of 180 patients treated with hemodialysis in the hemodialysis center of our hospital from November 2017 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. After puncture, all patients received the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) examination, and based on whether they had AVF thrombosis, they were divided into the nonthrombosis group (n = 102) and thrombosis group (n = 78), and then, according to the parity of their admission numbers, the patients in the thrombosis group were subdivided into the study group (n = 39) and the reference group (n = 39), so as to analyze the risk factors of thrombosis after AVF puncture and the application value of the risk evaluation system for AVF puncture in preventing and treating thrombosis. Results. Compared with the reference group after intervention, the study group had significantly higher mean internal fistula blood flow volume ( P  < 0.001) and significantly lower total incidence rate of vascular complications in fistulas ( P  < 0.05); according to the multifactor binary logistic regression analysis, it was found that diabetes, systolic blood pressure reduction, hemoglobin, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), ultrafiltration rate, and elevation of blood phosphorus and platelet levels were the risk factors of thrombosis after AVF puncture in hemodialysis patients. Conclusion. When risk factors of thrombosis are found in patients treated with hemodialysis, timely detection and intervention shall be applied in the early stage. Adopting the AVF puncture risk evaluation system has an extremely high application value in the clinic and is of important meaning in prolonging the service life of fistulas.

Credit risk evaluation is an importanttopic in financial risk management and become a major focus in the banking sector. This research discusses a credit risk evaluation system using an artificial neural network model based on backpropagation algorithm. This system is to train and test the neural network to determine the predictive value of credit risk, whether high riskorlow risk. This neural network uses 14 input layers, nine hidden layers and an output layer, and the data used comes from the bank that has branches in EastJakarta. The results showed that neural network can be used effectively in the evaluation of credit risk with accuracy of 88% from 100 test data

Abstract Background Preoperative risk evaluation systems are significant and important to the allocation of medical resources and the communication between doctors and patients. The European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II (EuroSCORE II) is widely used in clinical practice. Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) can specifically and accurately reflect myocardial injury. Whether EuroSCORE II can improve the predictive power after integrating with cTnT is still unclear. This study was a retrospective single center study designed to assess the predictive ability of EuroSCORE II integrated with cTnT for patients undergoing isolated off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Methods This retrospective and observational cohort study included 1887 patients who underwent first isolated OPCABG. cTnT was detected within 48 h before operation in each patient. According to myocardial injury, patients were divided by cTnT into 4 stages. A new risk evaluation system was created through logistic regression with EuroSCORE II and myocardial injury classification as covariates. Then the two risk evaluation systems were comparatively assessed by regression analysis, receiver operator characteristic curves, net reclassification index, Bland–Altman plots and decision curve analysis. Results There were 43 in-hospital deaths, with a mortality of 2.30% (43/1887). The logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative myocardial injury classification was a significant risk factor for in-hospital mortality in both total cohort (OR 1.491, 95%CI 1.049–2.119) and subsets (OR 1.761, 95%CI 1.102–2.814). The new risk evaluation system has higher calibration and discrimination power than EuroSCORE II, both for overall cohort and subsets. Especially, the new system has obvious advantages in discrimination power in the subset of acute myocardial infarction (AUC 0.813 vs. 0.772, 0.906 vs. 0.841, and 0.715 vs. 0.646, respectively). Conclusions Both myocardial injury classification and EuroSCORE II are independent risk factors of in-hospital mortality in OPCABG patients. The new risk evaluation system has higher predictive ability than EuroSCORE II, especially in patients with a recent history of AMI.
