PURPOSE: The decline in activities of daily living (ADL) among older persons is a significant public health concern. Sarcopenia is a major risk factor for ADL disability. This study aimed to develop and validate an interpretable machine learning (IML...
OBJECTIVE: The geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) is a promising tool for predicting nutrition-related complications in older adults. This study aimed to explore the association between GNRI and asthma in individuals aged 60 and above.
INTRODUCTION: Frailty is a common condition in older adults with diabetes, which significantly increases the risk of adverse health outcomes. Early identification of frailty in this population is crucial for implementing timely interventions. However...
Falls are a critical concern in older adults with cognitive frailty (CF). However, previous studies have not fully examined whether machine learning models can predict falls in older individuals with CF. The 2-year longitudinal data set from the Kore...

BACKGROUND: Palliative care is a key component of integrated care to improve care quality and reduce hospitalization costs for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aims to use machine learning algorithms to create an...
The global increase in the older adult population highlights the need for effective frailty assessment, a condition linked to adverse health outcomes such as hospitalization and mortality. Existing frailty assessment tools, like the Fried phenotype a...
PURPOSE: ChatGPT, a comprehensive language processing model, provides the opportunity for supportive and professional interactions with patients. However, its use to address patients' frequently asked questions (FAQs) and the readability of the text ...
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to employ artificial intelligence (AI) technology for the development of a model that can accurately forecast the outcome of emergency general surgery (EGS) in elderly patients. Additionally, an innovativ...
