Yet, a detailed characterisation of pituitary emergency referral patterns, including how they may change prospectively is lacking. This study aims to evaluate historical and current pituitary referral patterns and utilise state-of-the-art machine learning tools to predict future service use.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A data-driven analysis was performed using all available electronic neurosurgical referrals (2014\u20132021) to the busiest U.K. pituitary centre. Pituitary referrals were characterised and volumes were predicted using an auto-regressive moving average model with a preceding seasonal and trend decomposition using Loess step (STL-ARIMA), compared against a Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) algorithm, Prophet and two standard baseline forecasting models. Median absolute, and median percentage error scoring metrics with cross-validation were employed to evaluate algorithm performance.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>462 of 36,224 emergency referrals were included (referring centres\u2009=\u200948; mean patient age\u2009=\u200956.7 years, female:male\u2009=\u20090.49:0.51). Emergency medicine and endocrinology accounted for the majority of referrals (67%). The most common presentations were headache (47%) and visual field deficits (32%). Lesions mainly comprised tumours or haemorrhage (85%) and involved the pituitary gland or fossa (70%). The STL-ARIMA pipeline outperformed CNN-LSTM, Prophet and baseline algorithms across scoring metrics, with standard accuracy being achieved for yearly predictions. Referral volumes significantly increased from the start of data collection with future projected increases (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and did not significantly reduce during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This work is the first to employ large-scale data and machine learning to describe and predict acute pituitary referral volumes, estimate future service demands, explore\u00a0the impact of system stressors (e.g. COVID pandemic), and highlight areas for service improvement.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11102-022-01269-1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,9]],"date-time":"2022-09-09T20:11:25Z","timestamp":1662754285000},"page":"927-937","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Historical and future trends in emergency pituitary referrals: a machine learning analysis"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"A.
