Key result
A CHAID machine learning model identified sex as the strongest predictor of ischemic heart disease in young adults, with age, governorate, and pulse rate serving as key sex-specific predictors.
Why the study?
Can an artificial intelligence-based model predict risk factors for ischemic versus non-ischemic heart disease in young adults?
Observational
Can an artificial intelligence-based model predict risk factors for ischemic versus non-ischemic heart disease in young adults?
A machine learning CHAID model identified sex, age, and geographical location as key predictors for the development of ischemic heart disease in young adults.
Requires external validation before clinical use; leaves open whether CHAID models enhance IHD risk prediction beyond conventional scores in young adults.
• The Chi-square Automatic Interaction Detector (CHAID) model was the best prediction model of machine learning that was utilized to predict IHD versus non-IHD. • Sex is the most predictor of the development of IHD. • For females, the geographical location ‘governorate’ followed by age was the most predictor of IHD. • For males it was found that age, governorate, and pulse rate were the most important predictors of the development of IHD.

Hani et al. (2025) conducted an observational in Ischemic vs. non-ischemic heart disease. Risk factors (sex, age, governorate, pulse rate) was evaluated on Development of ischemic heart disease (IHD). A CHAID machine learning model identified sex as the strongest predictor of ischemic heart disease in young adults, with age, governorate, and pulse rate serving as key sex-specific predictors.
