# Machine learning predicts ESRD and mortality in CKD > Source: > Published: 2026-06-05 20:52:58.589395+00:00 # Machine learning predicts ESRD and mortality in CKD A retrospective cohort study applied machine learning to predict end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and mortality among patients with **chronic kidney disease (CKD)**. The study frames CKD as a global health burden with heterogeneous progression trajectories and uses predictive modeling to identify patients at elevated risk of ESRD and death. ## Scoring Rationale Applied clinical ML study addressing CKD outcome prediction, relevant to modelers and clinicians for risk stratification; solid domain-specific contribution with moderate impact.
