Dataset dependency of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol estimation by machine learning.

Annals of clinical biochemistry
OBJECTIVES: We evaluated the applicability of a machine learning-based low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) estimation method and the influence of the characteristics of the training datasets.

Estimation of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels using machine learning.

International journal of cardiology
BACKGROUND: Low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) is used as a threshold and target for treating dyslipidemia. Although the Friedewald equation is widely used to estimate LDL-C, it has been known to be inaccurate in the case of high triglycerid...

Machine learning predictive models of LDL-C in the population of eastern India and its comparison with directly measured and calculated LDL-C.

Annals of clinical biochemistry
BACKGROUND: LDL-C is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disorders. The formulas used to calculate LDL-C showed varying performance in different populations. Machine learning models can study complex interactions between the variables and can be ...

Comparing a novel machine learning method to the Friedewald formula and Martin-Hopkins equation for low-density lipoprotein estimation.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a target for cardiovascular prevention. Contemporary equations for LDL-C estimation have limited accuracy in certain scenarios (high triglycerides [TG], very low LDL-C).

Modelling disease risk for amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis in non-human primates using machine learning.

Amyloid : the international journal of experimental and clinical investigation : the official journal of the International Society of Amyloidosis
Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is found in humans and non-human primates, but quantifying disease risk prior to clinical symptoms is challenging. We applied machine learning to identify the best predictors of amyloidosis in rhesus macaques from availabl...

Deep neural network for estimating low density lipoprotein cholesterol.

Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry
BACKGROUND: LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) has been mainly estimated using the Friedewald equation, and other equations have recently been developed to complement the Friedewald equation. The present study aims to employ a deep neural network (DNN) to impro...

Effect of daily intake of a low-alcohol orange beverage on cardiovascular risk factors in hypercholesterolemic humans.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Oxidative stress, inflammation status, endothelial dysfunction, and imbalanced lipid metabolism play a major role in cardiovascular disease. Bioactive compounds and moderate alcohol consumption have been associated with decreased cardiovascular risk....

Predicting proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type-9 loss of function mutations using plasma PCSK9 concentration.

Journal of clinical lipidology
BACKGROUND: Low plasma proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type-9 (PCSK9) concentration has been associated with loss of function (LOF) PCSK9 mutations in several studies. However, the current standard for detection of these LOF mutations is throu...
