Urosepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by the dysregulated host response to infection originating from the urinary tract and/or male genital organs ( Ultrasound is a common emergency imaging technique in patients presenting severe loin pain and fever. It can reveal the size, location, and degree of obstruction of urinary calculi and also help evaluate complications of acute pyelonephritis, such as renal abscess, emphysematous pyelonephritis, and perirenal abscess ( Nowadays, artificial intelligence is commonly used in disease diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis prediction ( This study aimed to construct a urosepsis risk prediction model based on ultrasound and urinalysis for patients with upper urinary tract calculi using the ANN data mining approach. This model can be used as a preliminary screening tool to identify patients who are at high risk of urosepsis and be helpful in guiding targeted examinations or interventions.
