Predicting risk of heart failure for diabetes patients with help from machine learning

Heart failure is an important complication of type 2 that occurs frequently and lead to death or Earlier this month, way of accurately identifying patients are most risk heart failure elusive. A new led by investigators from and Women's Hospital and Southwestern Medical Center unveils Predicting risk of new, with high of accuracy, endocrinologists, and -- who are caring patients with and about what strategies used to help them, cardiologist the.

- Using a machine learning model, researchers could accurately predict future heart failure among patients with diabetes, a study published in Diabetes Care revealed. Heart failure is a potential complication of type 2 diabetes, leading to disability or death. Recently, scientists have found that a new class of medications may be helpful for preventing heart failure in patients with diabetes, but identifying those with the highest risk can be challenging. Researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and UT Southwestern Medical Center developed a risk diabetes heart disease score called WATCH-DM, a machine learning-driven model that would determine the top predictors of heart failure. Leveraging data from 8,756 patients with diabetes, the model evaluated clinical information, laboratory data, and demographics and found 147 variables that would accurately predict heart failure risk. Over a period of nearly five years, 319 patients developed heart failure. Researchers identified the top ten predictors of heart failure, which included weight, age, hypertension, diabetes control, and other factors, and used them to develop the WATCH-DM risk score.
