Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The machine learning (ML) models for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are considered to have better predictive ability for mortality compared to conventional risk scoring models. However, previous ML prediction models have mostly been short-term (1 year or less) models. Here, we established ML models for long-term prediction of AMI mortality (5 years or 10 years) and systematically compare the predictive capabilities of short-term models versus long-term models across varying survival time periods.
