    Abstract Background: High-dimensional omics data are increasingly utilized in clinical and public health research for disease risk prediction. Many previous sparse methods have been proposed that using prior knowledge, e.g., biological group structure information, to guide the model-building process. However, these methods are still based on a single model, offen leading to overconfident inferences and inferior generalization.
    Results: We proposed a novel stacking strategy based on a non-negative spike-and-slab Lasso (nsslasso) generalized linear model (GLM) for disease risk prediction in the context of high-dimensional omics data. Briefly, we used prior biological knowledge to segment omics data into a set of sub-data. Each sub-model was trained separately using the features from the group via a proper base learner. Then, the predictions of sub-models were ensembled by a super learner using nsslasso GLM. The proposed method was compared to several competitors, such as the Lasso, grlasso, and gsslasso, using simulated data and two open-access breast cancer data. As a result, the proposed method showed robustly superior prediction performance to the optimal single-model method in high-noise simulated data and real-world data. Furthermore, compared to the traditional stacking method, the proposed nsslasso stacking method can efficiently handle redundant sub-models and identify important sub-models.
    Conclusions: The proposed nsslasso method demonstrated favorable predictive accuracy, stability, and biological interpretability. Additionally, the proposed method can also be used to detect new biomarkers and key group structures.

    Abstract Background: Older adults are prone to live alone and feel lonely. The main objective of this study was to assess the associations of loneliness and living alone with cardiovascular disease (CVD) among community-dwelling older individuals in China.
    Methods: We conducted a longitudinal analysis on 3 661 participants aged older than 65 years from the latest 2014 and 2018 waves of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the associations of loneliness and living alone with CVD risk, with adjustment for confounding factors.
    Results: A total of 616 incident CVD cases were identified during follow-up. Participants who reported feeling lonely experienced a 28% increased risk of developing CVD after adjustment for sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, and baseline health status (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-1.62; ptrend = .046). In contrast, no significant association was observed between living alone and CVD risk. Subgroup analyses showed that among those individuals who lived alone, often feeling lonely doubled the risk of CVD compared to never being lonely (HR: 2.17, 95% CI: 1.20-3.93; ptrend = .007).
    Conclusions: Loneliness was an independent risk factor for CVD among Chinese older adults. Our findings underscore the importance of addressing loneliness in the prevention of CVD among older individuals, especially those who live alone.

    Abstract Our objective is to develop a prognostic model focused on cuproptosis, aimed at predicting overall survival (OS) outcomes among Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. The model utilized machine learning algorithms incorporating stacking. The GSE37642 dataset was used as the training data, and the GSE12417 and TCGA-LAML cohorts were used as the validation data. Stacking was used to merge the three prediction models, subsequently using a random survival forests algorithm to refit the final model using the stacking linear predictor and clinical factors. The prediction model, featuring stacking linear predictor and clinical factors, achieved AUC values of 0.840, 0.876 and 0.892 at 1, 2 and 3 years within the GSE37642 dataset. In external validation dataset, the corresponding AUCs were 0.741, 0.754 and 0.783. The predictive performance of the model in the external dataset surpasses that of the model simply incorporates all predictors. Additionally, the final model exhibited good calibration accuracy. In conclusion, our findings indicate that the novel prediction model refines the prognostic prediction for AML patients, while the stacking strategy displays potential for model integration.

    Abstract Objective: The population is aging exponentially and the resulting frailty is becoming increasingly evident. We aimed to explore the association between altitude and frailty, and to identify associated factors for frailty.
    Methods: This is a community-based cross-sectional survey. 1,298 participants aged ≥60 years from three different altitudes were included in the study. To quantify frailty, we constructed a frailty index (FI) and a frailty score (FS). The FI was divided into non-frailty, prefrailty, and frailty. The Odds Ratios and confidence intervals (ORs, 95%CIs) were used to evaluate the association between altitude and FI and FS in multivariate ordinal logistic regression and linear regression.
    Results: There were 560 (53.1%) participants in the prefrailty and 488 (37.6%) in the frailty group. The FS increased with higher altitude (
    Conclusion: The study indicates that high altitude exposure is an associated factor for frailty in older adults. This association become stronger with higher altitudes. As a result, it is essential to conduct early frailty screening for residents living at high altitudes.

    Abstract Abstract To investigate the gender-specific relationship between total bilirubin (TBIL) and fundus arteriosclerosis in the general population, and to explore whether there is a dose–response relationship between them. In a retrospective cohort study, 27,477 participants were enrolled from 2006 to 2019. The TBIL was divided into four groups according to the quartile. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate the HRs with 95% CIs of different TBIL level and fundus arteriosclerosis in men and women. The dose–response relationship between TBIL and fundus arteriosclerosis was estimated using restricted cubic splines method. In males, after adjusting for potential confounders, the Q2 to Q4 level of TBIL were significantly associated with the risk of fundus arteriosclerosis. The HRs with 95% CIs were 1.217 (1.095–1.354), 1.255 (1.128–1.396) and 1.396 (1.254–1.555), respectively. For females, TBIL level was not associated with the incidence of fundus arteriosclerosis. In addition, a linear relationship between TBIL and fundus arteriosclerosis in both genders (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.0047, respectively). In conclusion, the incidence of fundus arteriosclerosis is positively correlated with serum TBIL level in males, but not in females. In addition, there was a linear dose–response relationship between TBIL and incidence of fundus arteriosclerosis.

    Abstract Background: Few studies have explored the association between the number of SAs and bipolar disorder and major depression (BDMD). This study aims to investigate the association between SA and BDMD, and the possible dose-response relationship between them.
    Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 13,200 female UK Biobank participants. Participants were classified into BDMD and no-BDMD groups based on their BDMD status. The number of SAs was grouped into non-SA, occasional SA (OSA), and recurrent SA (RSA). Baseline characteristics of the three groups were balanced using inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) based on propensity scores. The three-knots restricted cubic spline regression model was utilized to assess the dose-response relationship between the number of SAs and BDMD.
    Results: The IPTW-adjusted multivariate logistic regression revealed that SA was an independent risk factor for BDMD, with adjusted OR of 1.12 (95 % CI: 1.07-1.19) and 1.32 (95 % CI: 1.25-1.40) in the OSA and RSA groups, respectively. The strength of this association amplified as the number of SAs (P for trend <0.001). There was a nonlinear relationship between the number of SAs and the risk of BDMD, with an approximately inverted L-shaped curve.
    Limitations: The information of the SA and BDMD status relied on self-reported by volunteers, and the study sample was mostly of European descent.
    Conclusions: Women who reported experiencing multiple SAs are more likely to have BDMD. Therefore, it is imperative to provide psychological care and interventions for women in the postpartum period.

    Abstract Genomics involving tens of thousands of genes is a complex system determining phenotype. An interesting and vital issue is how to integrate highly sparse genetic genomics data with a mass of minor effects into a prediction model for improving prediction power. We find that the deep learning method can work well to extract features by transforming highly sparse dichotomous data to lower-dimensional continuous data in a non-linear way. This may provide benefits in risk prediction-associated genotype data. We developed a multi-stage strategy to extract information from highly sparse binary genotype data and applied it for cancer prognosis. Specifically, we first reduced the size of binary biomarkers

    Abstract With the development of precision medicine, searching for potential biomarkers plays a major role in personalized medicine. Therefore, how to predict radiosensitivity to improve radiotherapy is a burning question. The definition of radiosensitivity is complex. Radiosensitive gene/biomarker can be useful for predicting which patients would benefit from radiotherapy. The discovery of radiosensitivity biomarkers require multiple pieces of evidence. A prediction model of breast cancer radiosensitivity based on six genes was established. We had put forward some supplements on the basis of the present study. We found that there were no differences between high- and low-risk scores in the non-radiotherapy group. Patients who received radiotherapy had a significantly better overall survival than non-radiotherapy patients in the predicted low-risk score patients. Furthermore, there was no difference between radiotherapy group and non-radiotherapy group in the high-risk score group. Those results firmly supported the prediction model of radiosensitivity. In addition, building a radiosensitivity prediction model was systematically discussed. Genes of model could be screened by different methods, such as Cox regression analysis, Lasso Cox regression method, random forest algorithm and other methods. In the future, precision radiotherapy might depend on the combination of multi-omics data and high dimensional image data.
