    The study evaluated machine learning and deep learning algorithms for predicting one-year mortality in elderly hip fracture patients.

  • 2

    Manually optimised Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB) algorithm outperformed other models with an AUC of 0.846 and accuracy of 0.791.

  • 3

    Key predictors of mortality included serum albumin and urea levels, patient age, intraoperative hypothermia, and chronic disease count.

  • 4

    An automated ML model using a large language model showed comparable performance to XGB, with a higher recall but lower precision.

  • 5

    The study highlights the potential of automated ML frameworks to democratize advanced predictive analytics in clinical settings.
