Decoding airway granulogenesis in children: unveiling risk factors for tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration and complications by Yuting You, Meili Shen, Li’e Zeng, Jingyang Zheng

“…Statistical models suggested that the time of foreign body impaction and the release of oil were risk factors for tracheal granulation, with the logistic model presenting an AUC of 0.948, precision of 0.676, and sensitivity of 0.895, whereas the XGBoost model presented an AUC of 0.902, precision of 0.912, and sensitivity of 0.875. Conclusions Tracheobronchial foreign bodies primarily develop in male children under the age of 3 and often lead to various complications. …”
