Development of explainable artificial intelligence based machine learning model for predicting 30-day hospital readmission after renal transplantation
Our XAI-based machine learning model combines strong predictive performance with clinical interpretability, offering transplant physicians donor-specific risk stratification capabilities. The web-based implementation facilitates practical integration into clinical workflows. Given our single-center experience and high proportion of living donors, external validation across diverse transplant centers is essential before widespread implementation. Our approach establishes a framework for developing center-specific risk prediction tools in transplant medicine.
