This paper proposes the use of machine learning models to predict one's risk of having hypertension in the future using their routine health checkup data of their current and past visits to a health checkup center. The large-scale and high-dimensiona...
BACKGROUND: High systolic blood pressure is one of the leading global risk factors for mortality, contributing significantly to cardiovascular diseases. Despite advances in treatment, a large proportion of patients with hypertension do not achieve op...
BACKGROUND: Heart failure combined with hypertension is a major contributor for elderly patients (≥ 65 years) to in-hospital mortality. However, there are very few models to predict in-hospital mortality in such elderly patients. We aimed to develop ...
Gravity, an invisible but constant force , challenges the regulation of blood pressure when transitioning between postures. As physiological reserve diminishes with age, individuals grow more susceptible to such stressors over time, risking inadequat...

BACKGROUND: In older adults with hypertension, hip fractures accompanied by preoperative acute heart failure significantly elevate surgical risks and adverse outcomes, necessitating timely identification and management to improve patient outcomes.
BACKGROUND: Worldwide, cardiovascular diseases are the primary cause of death, with hypertension as a key contributor. In 2019, cardiovascular diseases led to 17.9 million deaths, predicted to reach 23 million by 2030.

BACKGROUND: The global incidence of hypertension, a condition of elevated blood pressure, is rising alarmingly. According to the World Health Organization's Qatar Hypertension Profile for 2023, around 33% of adults are affected by hypertension. This ...
The global prevalence of hypertension continues excessively elevated, especially among low- and middle-income nations. Workplaces provide tremendous opportunities as a unique, easily accessible and practical avenue for early diagnosis and treatment o...

BACKGROUND: Chronic diseases are the leading cause of disability and death in the United States. Clinical pharmacists have been shown to optimize health outcomes and reduce health care expenditures in patients with chronic diseases through improving ...
Awareness and early identification of hypertension is crucial in reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Artificial intelligence-based analysis of 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) can already detect arrhythmias and hypertension. We perf...
