Machine learning identifies depression risk in older adults with chronic diseases: Clarifying shared risk factors stratified by cognitive impairment status

Background The prevalence of depression is higher among older adults with chronic diseases and cognitive impairment than the general population. The comorbidity of cognitive impairment and chronic diseases significantly impacts the lives of these patients. This study aims to develop machine learning models to identify depression risk among older adults with chronic illnesses across different levels of cognitive impairment. Methods Data were derived from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (n = 5798…

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1070 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.
