The effectiveness and factors influencing frequency of endoscopic bougie dilatation in treating postoperative anastomotic stenosis of congenital esophageal atresia.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study is to evaluate the effectiveness and frequency factors of endoscopic bougie dilatation in treating postoperative anastomotic stenosis of congenital esophageal atresia (CEA).

Methods

The clinical data of patients of anastomotic stenosis with endoscopic bougie were retrospectively analyzed. According to the number of dilation times (ND), patients were divided into two groups (Group 0: ND < 3; Grooup1: ND ≥ 3), and the differences in multiple clinical data were compared. Lasso regression and Ridge regression were used to screen important variables. Classification models were built utilizing various machine learning algorithms and their performance were evaluated. Finally, Kaplan-Meier model was used to estimate the probable-time distribution of children ach
