Leveraging Regression Analysis to Predict Overlapping Symptoms of Cardiovascular Diseases

In medical informatics, deep learning-based models are being used to predict and diagnose cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). These models can detect clinical signs, recognize phenotypes, and pick treatment methods for complicated illnesses. One approach to predicting CVDs is to collect a large dataset of patient medical records and use it to train a deep learning model. This study investigated CVDs for early prediction using deep learning-based regression analysis on a dataset of 2621 medical records from UAE hospitals, including age, symptoms, and CVD information. We propose a long short-term memory-based deep neural network for early prediction of CVDs by leveraging the regression analysis. It can be seen that the accuracy level of the diseases increased when they were simulated in pairs of one disease with another due to the overlapping symptoms. The study’s results suggest that coronary heart disease has been predicted with an 71.5% accuracy level, with 84.4% overlapping with Dyspnea; when accuracy measured with a combination of three conditions the accuracy was 86.7%, Dyspnea, Chest Pain, and Cyanosis, it has been increased up to 88.9%. Weakness, Fatigue, and Emptysis showed a value of 89.8%. In our proposed work, the combinations were Dyspnea, Chest Pain, Cyanosis, Weakness and Fatigue, Emptysis, and discomfort pressure in the chest have shown the ideal value of accuracy measured up to 90.6%, and with Fever, the accuracy is 91%. We show the effectiveness of our proposed method on several evaluation benchmarks.
