BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between CBC-derived inflammatory markers (NLR, PLR, NPAR, SII, SIRI, and AISI) and all-cause mortality (ACM) risk in arthritis (AR) patients with hypertensive (HTN) using data from the NHANES.
INTRODUCTION: Epigenetic biomarkers are molecular indicators of epigenetic changes, and some studies have suggested that these biomarkers have predictive power for disease risk. This study aims to analyze the relationship between 30 epigenetic biomar...
The prevalence of hearing loss (HL) has emerged as an escalating public health concern globally. The objective of this study was to leverage data from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) to develop an interpretable predict...
Limited research exists on the association between depression and heavy metal exposure. This study aims to develop an interpretable and efficient machine learning (ML) model with robust performance to identify depression linked to heavy metal exposur...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to compare the performance of five machine learning algorithms to predict diabetes mellitus based on lifestyle factors (diet and physical activity).
BACKGROUND: Depression is a common complication after a stroke that may lead to increased disability and decreased quality of life. The objective of this study was to develop and validate an interpretable predictive model to assess the risk of depres...
Hearing loss poses immense burden worldwide and early detection is crucial. The accurate models identify high-risk groups, enabling timely intervention to improve quality of life. The subtle changes in hearing often go unnoticed, presenting a challen...
BACKGROUND: Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a common chronic liver disease and represents a significant public health issue. Nevertheless, current risk stratification methods remain inadequate. The study aimed to use m...
Early and accurate identification of patients at high risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is critical to prevent and improve prognosis potentially. We aimed to develop and validate an explainable prediction model ...
N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) is important for diagnosing and predicting heart failure or many other diseases. However, few studies have comprehensively assessed the factors correlated with NT-proBNP levels in people with cardi...
