Machine Learning-Based Decision-Making in Geriatrics: Aging Phenotype Calculator and Survival Prognosis.

ABSTRACT: Aging is a natural process with varying effects. As we grow older, our bodies become more susceptible to aging-associated diseases. These diseases, individually or collectively, lead to the formation of distinct aging phenotypes. Identifying these aging phenotypes and understanding the complex interplay between coexistent diseases would facilitate more personalized patient management, a better prognosis, and a prolonged lifespan. Many studies distinguish between successful aging and frailty. However, this simple distinction fails to reflect the diversity of underlying causes. In this study, we sought to establish the underlying causes of frailty and determine the patterns in which these causes converge to form aging phenotypes. We conducted a comprehensive geriatric examination, cognitive
