Abstract
Cardiovascular disease complications are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with Type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is one of the earliest myocardial characteristics of diabetic cardiac dysfunction. Therefore, we aimed to develop an LVDD-risk predictive model to diagnose cardiac dysfunction before severe cardiovascular complications arise. We trained an artificial neural network model to predict LVDD risk with patients' clinical information. The model showed better performance than classical machine learning methods such as logistic regression, random forest and support vector machine. We further explored LVDD-risk/protective features with interpretability methods in neural network. Finally, we provided a freely accessible web server called LVDD-risk, where users can submit their clinical information to obtain their LVDD-risk probability and the most noteworthy risk indicators.
