To the Editor,I would like to acknowledge the valuable efforts taken to enhance the knowledge through the article "Prediction model for poor short-term prognosis in patients with chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) after burr hole drainage: a retrospective cohort study" [1]. We thoroughly read this article published in your journal and learned the aim behind this study. This article has described every aspect of determining prognosis postoperatively in patients after evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma via a single burr hole. This research has immense potential to add valuable insights into preexisting literature. Nonetheless, we still have some uncertainties to address, for which I would like to offer a few critical reflections that could be very valuable in further research in this aspect. Incorporating these additional factors could significantly enhance the comprehensiveness of this model.
我要感谢通过《慢性硬膜下血肿(CSDH)钻孔引流术后短期预后不良的预测模型:一项回顾性队列研究》这篇文章为增进知识所付出的宝贵努力[1]。我们仔细阅读了发表在贵刊的这篇文章,并了解了该研究的目的。本文描述了通过单个钻孔引流慢性硬膜下血肿后患者术后预后判断的各个方面。这项研究有巨大潜力为现有文献增添有价值的见解。尽管如此,我们仍有一些不确定因素需要解决,为此我想提出一些批判性思考,这对这方面的进一步研究可能非常有价值。纳入这些额外因素可显著提高该模型的全面性。
