Speech based suicide risk recognition for crisis intervention hotlines using explainable multi-task learning.

Journal of affective disorders
BACKGROUND: Crisis Intervention Hotline can effectively reduce suicide risk, but suffer from low connectivity rates and untimely crisis response. By integrating speech signals and deep learning to assist in crisis assessment, it is expected to enhanc...

Prediction and clustering of Alzheimer's disease by race and sex: a multi-head deep-learning approach to analyze irregular and heterogeneous data.

Scientific reports
Early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is crucial to maximize clinical outcomes. Most disease progression analyses include people with diagnoses of cognitive impairment, limiting understanding of AD risk among those with normal cognition. The ob...

Ensemble approach for predicting the diagnosis of osteoarthritis using physical activity factors.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative disease of the joints. Risk factors for OA include non-modifiable factors such as age and sex, as well as modifiable factors like physical activity.

Prediction of Social Engagement in Long-Term Care Homes by Sex: A Population-Based Analysis Using Machine Learning.

Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society
The objective of this study was to use population-based clinical assessment data to build and evaluate machine-learning models for predicting social engagement among female and male residents of long-term care (LTC) homes. Routine clinical assessment...

Patient-Specific Myocardial Infarction Risk Thresholds From AI-Enabled Coronary Plaque Analysis.

Circulation. Cardiovascular imaging
BACKGROUND: Plaque quantification from coronary computed tomography angiography has emerged as a valuable predictor of cardiovascular risk. Deep learning can provide automated quantification of coronary plaque from computed tomography angiography. We...

Identifying biological markers and sociodemographic factors that influence the gap between phenotypic and chronological ages.

Informatics for health & social care
INTRODUCTION: The world's population is aging rapidly, leading to increased public health and economic burdens due to age-related cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Early risk detection is essential for prevention and to improve the quali...

Enhancing pharmacist intervention targeting based on patient clustering with unsupervised machine learning.

Expert review of pharmacoeconomics & outcomes research
OBJECTIVES: Adherence to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Standards of Medical Care is low. This study aimed to assist pharmacists in identifying patients for diabetes control interventions using unsupervised machine learning.

Sex-Specific Imaging Biomarkers for Parkinson's Disease Diagnosis: A Machine Learning Analysis.

Journal of imaging informatics in medicine
This study aimed to identify sex-specific imaging biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD) based on multiple MRI morphological features by using machine learning methods. Participants were categorized into female and male subgroups, and various struct...

Rule-based natural language processing to examine variation in worsening heart failure hospitalizations by age, sex, race and ethnicity, and left ventricular ejection fraction.

American heart journal
BACKGROUND: Prior studies characterizing worsening heart failure events (WHFE) have been limited in using structured healthcare data from hospitalizations, and with little exploration of sociodemographic variation. The current study examined the impa...

Sex-Based Performance Disparities in Machine Learning Algorithms for Cardiac Disease Prediction: Exploratory Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: The presence of bias in artificial intelligence has garnered increased attention, with inequities in algorithmic performance being exposed across the fields of criminal justice, education, and welfare services. In health care, the inequit...
