====== MIMIC-III database ====== MIMIC-III is a large, freely available [[database]] comprising [[de-identification]] of [[health data]] associated with over forty thousand patients who stayed in [[critical care unit]]s of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center between 2001 and 2012. The database includes information such as demographics, vital sign measurements made at the bedside (~1 data point per hour), laboratory test results, procedures, medications, caregiver notes, imaging reports, and mortality (including post-hospital discharge). MIMIC supports a diverse range of analytic studies spanning epidemiology, clinical decision-rule improvement, and electronic tool development. It is notable for three factors: it is freely available to researchers worldwide; it encompasses a diverse and very large population of ICU patients; and it contains highly granular data, including vital signs, laboratory results, and medications. Based on the [[MIMIC-III database]], Yi et al. firstly described the dissimilarities in [[survival]] [[probability]], [[mortality]], and neurological [[recovery]] among mainstream treatments for [[intracerebral hemorrhage]]; secondly, patient [[classification]] was determined by important [[clinical features]]; and [[outcome]] variations among treatment groups were compared. The 28-day, 90-day, and in-hospital mortality in the [[craniotomy]] group were significantly lower than [[minimally invasive surgery]] (MIS) and non-surgical group patients; and, the medium/long-term mortality in the MIS group was significantly lower than the non-surgical group. The craniotomy group positively correlated with short-term GCS recovery compared with the MIS group; no difference existed between the non-surgical and MIS groups. The craniotomy group's 90-day survival probability and short-term GCS recovery were superior to the other two treatments in the subgroups of first GCS 3-12; this tendency also presented in the MIS group over the non-surgical group. For milder patients (first GCS > 12), the three treatment regimens had a minimal effect on patient survival, but the non-surgical group showed an advantage in short-term GCS recovery. [[Craniotomy]] patients have lower mortality and a better short-term neurological recovery in an ICH population, especially in short-to-medium term mortality and short-term neurological recovery over MIS patients. In addition, surgical treatment is recommendable for patients with a GCS ≤ 12. ((Yi Y, Che W, Cao Y, Chen F, Liao J, Wang X, Lyu J.
