Machine Learning Prediction of Hoehn and Yahr Scores at 5-Years Post-<sup>123</sup>I-Ioflupane SPECT Imaging in a Real-World Parkinson's Disease Dataset
Background Parkinson's disease (PD) progression is highly heterogeneous, complicating clinical management and prognostication. While machine learning models have been developed using research datasets such as Parkinson's Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI) and Parkinson's Disease Biomarkers Program (PDBP), their clinical translatability is limited due to differences in routinely collected data. The Hoehn and Yahr (H&Y) scale is commonly used in clinical practice to stage PD, yet most predictive models focus on…
Random Forest and Gradient Boosting models trained on routinely collected clinical records predicted Hoehn and Yahr scores 5 years after ioflupane SPECT imaging, with best accuracy using 2 years of follow-up data.
SPECT imaging features added limited prognostic value and implementing models on real-world data did not significantly close the gap between prognostic modeling and clinical implementation.
Clinical translatability of prior models is constrained by differences between research and routine data, and imaging added little prognostic value in this real-world implementation.

Certified into the record
How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0574 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
