Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The global population is aging and the burden of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) is expected to increase. According to the National Health Insurance Research Database, our previous studies have showed LUTS may predispose patients to cardiovascular disease. However, it is difficult to provide a personalized risk assessment in the context of "having acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and stroke." This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based prediction model for patients with LUTS.
