Spatial analysis of county-level determinants of overdose mortality in the United States using spatial machine learning.

BMC public health
In recent years, there has been a growing body of literature on identifying effective determinants for modeling the spatial variation of overdose rates, addressing this emerging public health concern globally. We compiled a range of widely recognized...

Alzheimer's Disease Dementia Prevalence in the United States: A County-Level Spatial Machine Learning Analysis.

American journal of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias
A growing body of literature has examined the impact of neighborhood characteristics on Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia, yet the spatial variability and relative importance of the most influential factors remain underexplored. We compiled various w...

Land surface temperature predicts mortality due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a study based on climate variables and impact machine learning.

Geospatial health
INTRODUCTION: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) mortality rates and global warming have been in the focus of scientists and policymakers in the past decade. The long-term shifts in temperature and weather patterns, commonly referred to as ...

Forecasting dengue across Brazil with LSTM neural networks and SHAP-driven lagged climate and spatial effects.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral disease that poses significant health risks and socioeconomic challenges in Brazil, necessitating accurate forecasting across its 27 federal states. With the country's diverse climate and geographica...

Spatial analysis of air pollutant exposure and its association with metabolic diseases using machine learning.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: Metabolic diseases (MDs), exemplified by diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, have become increasingly prevalent with rising living standards, posing significant public health challenges. The MDs are influenced by a complex interplay...

Uncovering soil heavy metal pollution hotspots and influencing mechanisms through machine learning and spatial analysis.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Soil heavy metal (HM) pollution is a significant and widespread environmental issue in China, highlighting the need to quantify influencing factors and identify priority concern areas for effective prevention and management. Based on published litera...

Spatial heterogeneity effect of built environment on traffic safety using geographically weighted atrous convolutions neural network.

Accident; analysis and prevention
The built environment exerts a significant influence on the frequency and severity of traffic accidents. Spatially uniform assumptions on the impacts of built environment factors commonly employed in existing research may lead to inconsistent and con...

Multimodal multiview bilinear graph convolutional network for mild cognitive impairment diagnosis.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a significant predictor of the early progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and can serve as an important indicator of disease progression. However, many existing methods focus mainly on the image when processing b...

Machine learning approach and geospatial analysis to determine HIV infection, awareness status, and transmission knowledge among adults in Sub-Saharan Africa.

BMC research notes
BACKGROUND: HIV/AIDS remains a major public health challenge, in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In 2020, 16% of people living with HIV did not know their HIV status in SSA. Understanding the geospatial distribution of HIV infection, awareness status, and ...
