BACKGROUND: Hip fractures have become a significant health concern, particularly among super-aged patients, who were at a high risk of postoperative pneumonia due to their frailty and the presence of multiple comorbidities. This study aims to establi...
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and compare machine learning models for predicting diabetic retinopathy (DR) using clinical and biochemical data, specifically logistic regression, random forest, XGBoost, and neural networks.
In hyperuricaemic populations, multiple factors may contribute to impaired renal function. This study aimed to establish a machine learning-based model to identify characteristic factors related to renal impairment in hyperuricaemic patients, determi...
OBJECTIVE: Predicting healthcare demand is essential for effective resource allocation and planning. This study applies Andersen's Behavioral Model of Health Services Use, focusing on predisposing, enabling, and need factors, using data from the 2022...
Upper extremity injuries in baseball players demand advanced prevention. Our study analyzed clinical features using machine learning techniques to provide precise and individualized injury risk assessment and prediction. We recruited 98 baseball play...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to develop and internally validate an interpretable machine learning (ML) model for predicting the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection.
The association between chronic lung diseases (CLDs) and the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has been extensively recognized. Nevertheless, conventional approaches for CVD risk evaluation cannot fully capture the risk factors (RFs) related to ...
BACKGROUND: Adequate bowel preparation is crucial for effective colonoscopy, especially in elderly patients who face a high risk of inadequate preparation. This study develops and validates a machine learning model to predict bowel preparation adequa...
BACKGROUND: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a significant public health issue. This study aimed to develop and validate machine learning (ML) models using biopsychosocial predictors to predict the risk of PPD for perinatal women and to provide several...
This study utilized data from the 2020 wave of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study database, selecting 4322 participants aged 60 and above as the study sample. Important predictors of depression in older adults with functional disabili...
