The accurate classification of obesity is essential for public health and clinical decision-making. Traditional anthropometric measures such as body mass index (BMI) have limitations in differentiating between fat and lean mass. This study aimed to e...
INTRODUCTION: Dyslipidemia as a modifiable risk factor for chronic non-communicable diseases has become a worldwide concern. We aim to explore different anthropometric measures as predictors of dyslipidemia using various machine learning methods.
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in children with obesity correlates with metabolic dysfunction, yet interactions between anthropometrics, liver enzymes, and risk of MASLD remain unclear. This study included 219 childr...
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a known risk factor for breast cancer (BC), but conventional metrics such as body mass index (BMI) may insufficiently capture central adiposity. The weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) has emerged as a potentially superior anthro...
BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative condition, the effect of obesity on PD remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the associations of obesity patterns on PD and all-cause mortality, while developing machine l...
OBJECTIVE: Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) share common risk factors and frequently co-occur, leading to poorer outcomes. Life's Essential 8 (LE8), a novel metric for cardiovascular health, may provide insights i...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of the "double-low" scanning protocol combined with the artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction (AIIR) algorithm for abdominal computed tomography (CT) enhancement in obese patients and to identify the opt...
BACKGROUND: Hypertension (HTN) is a complex condition with significant heterogeneity in presentation and treatment response. Identifying distinct subphenotypes of HTN may improve our understanding of its underlying mechanisms and guide more precise t...
BACKGROUND: This study employed representative data from the U.S. and China to delve into the correlation among migraine prevalence, the triglyceride‒glucose index, a marker of insulin resistance, and the composite indicator of obesity.
Biomarkers are crucial in aiding in disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment selection. Machine learning (ML) has emerged as an effective tool for identifying novel biomarkers and enhancing predictive modelling. However, sex-based bias in ML algor...
