Risk prediction model for in-hospital mortality in women with ST-elevation myocardial infarction: A machine learning approach

Studies had shown that mortality due to ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is higher in women compared with men. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate prediction models for all-cause in-hospital mortality in women admitted with STEMI using logistic regression and random forest, and to compare the performance and validity of the different models.
