Research Article: Use machine learning to help identify possible sarcopenia cases in maintenance hemodialysis patients

Date Published: 2023-04-26

Abstract:
Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients often suffer from sarcopenia, which is strongly associated with their long-term mortality. The diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia, especially possible sarcopenia for MHD patients are of great importance. This study aims to use machine learning and medical data to develop two simple sarcopenia identification assistant tools for MHD patients and focuses on sex specificity.

Introduction:
The prevalence and medical resource consumption of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are rapidly increasing with the incidence of diabetes mellitus (DM), obesity, and hypertension. Furthermore, CKD plays an important role in increasing the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and patient mortality. The criteria for CKD is that there are markers of kidney damage or glomerular filtration rate?<?60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 for?>?3 months. Its latest classification includes cause of disease, level of GFR (6 categories),…
