Machine learning improves risk stratification of coronary heart disease and stroke.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronary heart disease (CHD) and cerebral ischemic stroke (CIS) are two major types of cardiovascular disease (CVD) that are increasingly exerting pressure on the healthcare system worldwide. Machine learning holds great promise for improving the accuracy of disease prediction and risk stratification in CVD. However, there is currently no clinically applicable risk stratification model for the Asian population. This study developed a machine learning-based CHD and CIS model to address this issue.

Methods

A case-control study was conducted based on 8,624 electronic medical records from 2008 to 2019 at the Tongji Hospital in Wuhan, China. Two machine learning methods (the random down-sampling method and the random forest method) were integrated into 2 ensemble model
