Replicating prediction algorithms for hospitalization and corticosteroid use in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

<h4>Introduction</h4>Previous work had shown that machine learning models can predict inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-related hospitalizations and outpatient corticosteroid use based on patient demographic and laboratory data in a cohort of United States Veterans. This study aimed to re...
