Show abstract

The commonly used Modified Early Warning score (MEWS) may poorly predict deterioration in COVID-19 patients. Therefore, an adjusted MEWS for COVID-19 patients (CEWS) was constructed. CEWS exceeded MEWS at all time points and impending death or intensive care unit (ICU) admission was strongly correlated with a persistently high CEWS.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
