We applied statistical learning techniques to understand the relationship between the absolute and relative changes in area of pleural opacity as measured by chest radiographs on key health outcomes (such as LOS and mortality) for pleural infection patients in the Multicentre Intrapleural Sepsis Trial (MIST-2) dataset. We found that chest radiograph features significantly predicted key mortality and morbidity metrics for patients at 3 months. 

Abstract published in Thorax and presented at the British Thoracic Society Winter Meeting, 2019. Paper forthcoming.
Does the appearance of the chest radiograph matter in pleural infection?
