Deep neural network model

mixedin humans1

1 study
  1. deep neural network model predicts impaired kidney function in humans (Accuracy 0.78; recall 0.69; recall 0.78 at threshold 0.4).

    “The DNN model showed good predictive performance (accuracy 0.78; recall 0.69), with improved recall (0.78) at a threshold of 0.4.”

1 study
  1. Impaired kidney function raises the risk of cardiovascular mortality in humans (HR (95% CI): 1.56 (1.24-1.99)).

    “eGFR <45 (compared to ≥45) mL/min/1.73 m 2 were associated with an increased risk of CV mortality ((HR [95% CI]: 1.36 (1.16-1.60) and 1.56(1.24-1.99)), respectively.”

Blood protein clock tracks shifts in health risks over time

In an observational study of 4,100 people, accelerated blood protein aging tracked worsening kidney function, blood lipid imbalances, and a higher risk of death.In an observational study of 4,100 people, accelerated blood protein aging tracked worsening kidney function, blood lipid imbalances, and a higher risk of death.

Underweight is linked to higher kidney disease risk in diabetes

Underweight carried an odds ratio of 1.41 for incident chronic kidney disease compared with no obesity, whereas excess adiposity showed an odds ratio of 1.03.Underweight carried an odds ratio of 1.41 for incident chronic kidney disease compared with no obesity, whereas excess adiposity showed an odds ratio of 1.03.
