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...
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...
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...
BACKGROUND: This study employed representative data from the U.S. and China to delve into the correlation among migraine prevalence, the triglyceride‒glucose index, a marker of insulin resistance, and the composite indicator of obesity.
Biomarkers are crucial in aiding in disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment selection. Machine learning (ML) has emerged as an effective tool for identifying novel biomarkers and enhancing predictive modelling. However, sex-based bias in ML algor...
BACKGROUND: Surrogate insulin resistance (IR) indices are simpler and more practical alternatives to insulin-based IR indicators for clinical use. This study explored the association between surrogate IR indices, including triglyceride-glucose index ...
BACKGROUND: Hypertension (HTN) is a global public health concern and a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality. Insulin resistance (IR) plays a crucial role in HTN-related metabolic dysfunction, but its assessment remains cha...

OBJECTIVES: Sufficient attention has not been given to machine learning (ML) models using longitudinal data for investigating important predictors of new onset of hypertension. We investigated the predictive ability of several ML models for the devel...
BACKGROUND: The intake of dietary antioxidants and glycolipid metabolism are closely related to chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly among individuals with abdominal obesity. Nevertheless, the cumulative effect of multiple comorbid risk factors...
AIMS: This study aims to enhance the precision of obesity risk assessments by improving the accuracy of waist circumference predictions using machine learning techniques.
