Transcriptomics-guided serum podoplanin and interpretable machine learning for early risk stratification of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants
BackgroundTo evaluate podoplanin (PDPN) as a circulating biomarker for early necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) risk stratification and to determine whether an interpretable machine-learning framework integrating PDPN with prediagnostic clinical and infla…
