BACKGROUND: The risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) varies among individuals and is related to a variety of lifestyle factors in addition to the presence of chronic diseases.
BACKGROUND: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are synthetic chemicals with widespread environmental persistence and human exposure. Currently, no studies have used machine learning (ML) to predict depression based on PFAS exposure. This stud...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Obesity is a well-established risk factor for gallstone formation, but traditional anthropometric measures (e.g., BMI, waist circumference) inadequately assess metabolically active visceral adiposity. The novel Metabolic Score fo...

INTRODUCTION: Observational studies have indicated that individuals with hypertension (HTN) and diabetes mellitus (DM) tend to exhibit elevated plasma atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), defined as log (triglyceride [TG]/high-density lipoprotein chole...
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a known risk factor for breast cancer (BC), but conventional metrics such as body mass index (BMI) may insufficiently capture central adiposity. The weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) has emerged as a potentially superior anthro...

Environmental pollution plays a major role in the development of prostate cancer (PCA). However, there has been no research on machine learning (ML) modelling between multiple heavy metal exposures and PCA risk. Based on the 8022 samples from the 200...
This cross-sectional investigation seeks to examine the association between dietary omega-3 fatty acids (including α-linolenic acid [ALA], eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA], and docosahexaenoic acid [DHA]) and biomarkers of cellular aging, specifically DNA...
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, significantly impacts patient survival, prompting the need for accurate prognostic tools. Lifestyle factors and physical activity levels have been identified as critical modifiable r...

OBJECTIVE: Evidence from prior studies indicates that certain endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), such as phenols and phthalates, may serve as environmental risk factors for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, no studies have ex...
BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative condition, the effect of obesity on PD remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the associations of obesity patterns on PD and all-cause mortality, while developing machine l...
