Multi-task deep learning for predicting metabolic syndrome from retinal fundus images in a Japanese health checkup dataset.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Retinal fundus images provide a noninvasive window into systemic health, offering opportunities for early detection of metabolic disorders such as metabolic syndrome (METS).

Incorporation of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease in the Health Stage of Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome Improves Predictive Ability for Coronary Artery Disease in a Japanese General Population.

Journal of the American Heart Association
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome is a recently proposed condition encompassing metabolic dysfunction, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular diseases including coronary artery disease (CAD). Although concomitant metaboli...

Unsupervised machine learning approach to interpret complex lower urinary tract symptoms and their impact on quality of life in adult women.

World journal of urology
