Development of a short form of the Geriatric Depression Scale-30 based on item response theory and the RiskSLIM algorithm.

General hospital psychiatry
Recently, methods of quickly and accurately screening for geriatric depression have attracted substantial attention. Short forms of the 30-item Geriatric Depression Scale have been developed based on classical test theory, such as the GDS-4, GDS-5, a...

Screening for frequent hospitalization risk among community-dwelling older adult between 2016 and 2023: machine learning-driven item selection, scoring system development, and prospective validation.

Frontiers in public health
BACKGROUND: Screening for frequent hospitalizations in the community can help prevent super-utilizers from growing in the inpatient population. However, the determinants of frequent hospitalizations have not been systematically examined, their operat...

Machine learning insights on activities of daily living disorders in Chinese older adults.

Experimental gerontology
OBJECTIVE: This study on the aged population in China first used a large-scale longitudinal survey database to explore how different life factors affect their ability to engage in daily activities. We select and integrate multiple machine models to o...

Predicting frailty in older patients with chronic pain using explainable machine learning: A cross-sectional study.

Geriatric nursing (New York, N.Y.)
Frailty is common among older adults with chronic pain, and early identification is crucial in preventing adverse outcomes like falls, disability, and dementia. However, effective tools for identifying frailty in this population remain limited. This ...

Inter- and intra-rater reliability of cognitive assessment conducted by assistive robot for older adults living in the community: a preliminary study.

Psychogeriatrics : the official journal of the Japanese Psychogeriatric Society
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to reveal inter- and intra-rater reliability of the detailed evaluation of cognitive function by assistive robot for older adults.

Machine learning-based prediction of sarcopenia in community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults: findings from the CHARLS.

Psychogeriatrics : the official journal of the Japanese Psychogeriatric Society
BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia is a prominent issue among aging populations and associated with poor health outcomes. This study aimed to examine the predictive value of questionnaire and biomarker data for sarcopenia, and to further develop a user-friendly ...

Implementing AI-Driven Bed Sensors: Perspectives from Interdisciplinary Teams in Geriatric Care.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Sleep is a crucial aspect of geriatric assessment for hospitalized older adults, and implementing AI-driven technology for sleep monitoring can significantly enhance the rehabilitation process. Sleepsense, an AI-driven sleep-tracking device, provides...

Advances of artificial intelligence in predicting frailty using real-world data: A scoping review.

Ageing research reviews
BACKGROUND: Frailty assessment is imperative for tailoring healthcare interventions for older adults, but its implementation remains challenging due to the effort and time needed. The advances of artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language proc...

The application of machine learning for identifying frailty in older patients during hospital admission.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Early identification of frail patients and early interventional treatment can minimize the frailty-related medical burden. This study investigated the use of machine learning (ML) to detect frailty in hospitalized older adults with acute ...

Predicting malnutrition-based anemia in geriatric patients using machine learning methods.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
BACKGROUND: Anemia due to malnutrition may develop as a result of iron, folate and vitamin B12 deficiencies. This situation poses a higher risk of morbidity and mortality in the geriatric population than in other age groups. Therefore, early diagnosi...
