Researchers from notable institutions have developed a machine learning model to forecast treatment outcomes in infants with vesicoureteral reflux. The study indicates that renal scarring and bladder dysfunction are key predictors. This approach aids in early identification of high-risk patients, enabling more tailored and effective clinical interventions.
