Prediction of Incident Diabetes in the Jackson Heart Study Using High-Dimensional Machine Learning.

PloS one
Statistical models to predict incident diabetes are often based on limited variables. Here we pursued two main goals: 1) investigate the relative performance of a machine learning method such as Random Forests (RF) for detecting incident diabetes in ...

Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and metabolic syndrome in a Japanese working population: The Furukawa Nutrition and Health Study.

Nutrition (Burbank, Los Angeles County, Calif.)
OBJECTIVE: Increasing evidence has suggested a protective role of vitamin D on metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, studies addressing this issue are limited in Asia and it remains unclear whether calcium could modify the association. We examined the ...

Machine learning-based analyses of contributing factors for the development of hypertension: a comparative study.

Clinical and experimental hypertension (New York, N.Y. : 1993)
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...

Prediction Model for Insulin Resistance and Implications for MASLD in Youth: A Novel Marker, the Pediatric Insulin Resistance Assessment Score.

Yonsei medical journal
PURPOSE: Insulin resistance (IR) is a condition closely associated with cardiovascular risk factors and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is emerging as a significant IR-related complication. We aimed to develop a predi...

[Obesity and inflammation in students of a Colombian public university].

Revista de salud publica (Bogota, Colombia)
OBJECTIVE: To describe the relationship between obesity and proinflammatory variables in the student population of the University of Quindío.

Computational Intelligence Techniques for Assessing Anthropometric Indices Changes in Female Athletes.

Current medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Physical characteristics including body size and configuration, are considered as one of the key influences on the optimum performance in athletes. Despite several analyzing methods for modeling the slimming estimation in terms of reducti...

Increased lipocalin-2 vs reduced oxytocin in relation with adiposity, atherogenicity and hematological indices in metabolic syndrome patients with and without prediabetes.

Bratislavske lekarske listy
OBJECTIVES: The neuropeptide hormone- Oxytocin (OXT) and glycoprotein Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2) are strongly associated with cardiometabolic risks of insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome (MetS) and prediabetes (preDM).

Adiponectin levels may help assess the clinical repercussions of obesity irrespective of body mass index.

Hormones (Athens, Greece)
OBJECTIVE: Adiponectin is the major product of adipose tissue. The aim of this study was to associate adiponectin levels with adipose tissue and metabolic indices.
