    Artificial neural networks achieved the highest AUROC for 30-day and 60-day predictions, while random forest excelled for 365-day predictions.

    SHAP analysis indicated that age was the primary predictor for 30-day readmissions, while inflammatory markers were key for 60-day readmissions.

  • 4

    Diabetes-specific chronic complications were the dominant risk factors for 365-day readmissions, highlighting the evolution of risk factors over time.

    The study emphasizes the need for time-specific model selection and dynamic risk monitoring in T2DM patients to improve clinical outcomes.
