The Challenges of Predicting Rare Outcomes: A Critical Appraisal of Machine Learning Using the Pediatric Resuscitation and Trauma Outcome (PRESTO) Model in a Tanzanian Injury Registry

World Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 10, Page 3103-3110, October 2026.
Adding adult data did not improve predictability of the PRESTO model, possibly due to the fact that the lower mortality and injury severity in adults compared to children in our dataset statistically diluted the model. ABSTRACT Background Injuries are responsible for 950,000 deaths per year among children and adolescents under 18 years old.
