Population Health-Based Machine Learning Reveals Associations Between Psychosocial Factors and Chronic Kidney Disease

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) progresses silently and severely undermines quality of life, making early detection critical for improving patient outcomes. We present a two-part study that combines large-scale telehealth data with advanced machine learning to both classify self-reported CKD status and identify key drivers of disease. Using selected features from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS 2021: 438,693 samples; BRFSS 2019: 418,268 samples) and the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS 2021: 29,482 samples; NHIS 2020: 31,568 samples), we addressed missing data with nine state-of-the-art imputation methods and mitigated class imbalance via sampling strategies. Our customized stacked ensemble model achieved balanced accuracy of 72.56-76.12%, with corresponding AUROC scores of 79.59-82.29%. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis, followed by clinical review, highlighted critical predictors, including regular medical check-ups, age, blood pressure, and indicators of mental health stress. These findings deliver a robust and interpretable framework for CKD risk stratification and provide actionable insights into its associated factors.

Exploring Emotions in EEG: Deep Learning Approach with Feature Fusion

Emotion is an intricate physiological response that plays a crucial role in how we respond and cooperate with others in our daily affairs. Numerous experiments have been evolved to recognize emotion, however still require exploration to intensify the performance. To enhance the performance of effective emotion recognition, this study proposes a subject-dependent robust end-to-end emotion recognition system based on a 1D convolutional neural network (1D-CNN). We evaluate the SJTU\footnote{\href{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_Jiao_Tong_University}{Shanghai Jiao Tong University(SJTU)}} Emotion EEG Dataset SEED-V with five emotions (happy, sad, neural, fear, and disgust). To begin with, we utilize the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to decompose the raw EEG signals into six frequency bands and extract the power spectrum feature from the frequency bands. After that, we combine the extracted power spectrum feature with eye movement and differential entropy (DE) features. Finally, for classification, we apply the combined data to our proposed system. Consequently, it attains 99.80\% accuracy which surpasses each prior state-of-the-art system.
