    Abstract Background and goals: One of the biggest difficulties facing healthcare systems today is the prevalence of multiple chronic diseases (MCC). Mortality and the development of new chronic illnesses are more likely in those with MCC. Pre-existing diseases and risk factors specific to the patient have an impact on the complex stochastic process that guides the evolution of MCC. This study's goal is to use a brand-new Graph Neural Network (GNN) model to examine the connections between specific chronic illnesses, patient-level risk factors, and pre-existing conditions.
    Methods: We propose a graph neural network model to analyze the relationship between five chronic conditions (diabetes, obesity, cognitive impairment, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension). The proposed model adds a graph Laplacian regularization term to the loss function, which aims to improve the parameter learning process and accuracy of the GNN based on the graph structure. For validation, we used historical data from the Cameron County Hispanic Cohort (CCHC).
    Results: Evaluating the Laplacian regularized GNN on data from 600 patients, we expanded our analysis from two chronic conditions to five chronic conditions. The proposed model consistently surpassed a baseline GNN model, achieving an average accuracy of ≥89% across all combinations. In contrast, the performance of the standard model declined more markedly with the addition of more chronic conditions. The Laplacian regularization provided consistent predictions for adjacent nodes, beneficial in cases with shared attributes among nodes.
    Conclusions: The incorporation of Laplacian regularization in our GNN model is essential, resulting in enhanced node categorization and better predictive performance by harnessing the graph structure. This study underscores the significance of considering graph structure when designing neural networks for graph data. Future research might further explore and refine this regularization method for various tasks using graph-structured data.

    Abstract Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a prevalent chronic disease with a significant risk of serious health complications and negative impacts on the quality of life. Given the impact of individual characteristics and lifestyle on the treatment plan and patient outcomes, it is crucial to develop precise and personalized management strategies. Artificial intelligence (AI) provides great promise in combining patterns from various data sources with nurses' expertise to achieve optimal care. Methods: This is a 6-month ancillary study among T2D patients (n = 20, age = 57 +- 10). Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention (AI, n=10) group to receive daily AI-generated individualized feedback or a control group without receiving the daily feedback (non-AI, n=10) in the last three months. The study developed an online nurse-in-the-loop predictive control (ONLC) model that utilizes a predictive digital twin (PDT). The PDT was developed using a transfer-learning-based Artificial Neural Network. The PDT was trained on participants self-monitoring data (weight, food logs, physical activity, glucose) from the first three months, and the online control algorithm applied particle swarm optimization to identify impactful behavioral changes for maintaining the patient's glucose and weight levels for the next three months. The ONLC provided the intervention group with individualized feedback and recommendations via text messages. The PDT was re-trained weekly to improve its performance. Findings: The trained ONLC model achieved >=80% prediction accuracy across all patients while the model was tuned online. Participants in the intervention group exhibited a trend of improved daily steps and stable or improved total caloric and total carb intake as recommended.

    Abstract Bayesian networks are powerful statistical models to study the probabilistic relationships among sets of random variables with significant applications in disease modeling and prediction. Here, we propose a continuous time Bayesian network with conditional dependencies represented as regularized Poisson regressions to model the impact of exogenous variables on the conditional intensities of the network. We also propose an adaptive group regularization method with an intuitive early stopping feature based on Gaussian mixture model clustering for efficient learning of the structure and parameters of the proposed network. Using a dataset of patients with multiple chronic conditions extracted from electronic health records of the Department of Veterans Affairs, we compare the performance of the proposed network with some of the existing methods in the literature for both short-term (one-year ahead) and long-term (multi-year ahead) predictions. The proposed model provides a sparse intuitive representation of the complex functional relationships between multiple chronic conditions. It also provides the capability of analyzing multiple disease trajectories over time, given any combination of preexisting conditions.

    Abstract More than a quarter of all Americans are estimated to have multiple chronic conditions (MCC). It is known that shared modifiable lifestyle behaviors account for many common MCC. What is not precisely known is the dynamic effect of changes in lifestyle behaviors on the trajectories of MCC emergence. This paper proposes dynamic functional continuous time Bayesian networks to effectively formulate the dynamic effect of patients' modifiable lifestyle behaviors and their interaction with non-modifiable demographics and preexisting conditions on the emergence of MCC. The proposed method considers the parameters of the conditional dependencies of MCC as a nonlinear state-space model and develops an extended Kalman filter to capture the dynamics of the modifiable risk factors on the MCC evolution. It also develops a tensor-based control chart based on the integration of multilinear principal component analysis and multivariate exponentially weighted moving average chart to monitor the effect of changes in the modifiable risk factors on the risk of new MCC. We validate the proposed method based on a combination of simulation and a real dataset of 385 patients from the Cameron County Hispanic Cohort. The dataset examines the emergence of 5 chronic conditions (Diabetes, Obesity, Cognitive Impairment, Hyperlipidemia, Hypertension) based on 4 modifiable lifestyle behaviors representing (Diet, Exercise, Smoking Habits, Drinking Habits) and 3 non-modifiable demographic risk factors (Age, Gender, Education). For the simulated study, the proposed algorithm shows a run-length of 4 samples (4 months) to identify behavioral changes with significant impacts on the risk of new MCC. For the real data study, the proposed algorithm shows a run-length of one sample (one year) to identify behavioral changes with significant impacts on the risk of new MCC. The results demonstrate the sensitivity of the proposed methodology for dynamic prediction and monitoring of the risk of MCC emergence in individual patients.

    Abstract When patients leave the hospital for lower levels of care, they experience a risk of adverse events on a daily basis. The advent of value-based purchasing among other major initiatives has led to an increasing emphasis on reducing the occurrences of these post-discharge adverse events. This has spurred the development of new prediction technologies to identify which patients are at risk for an adverse event as well as actions to mitigate those risks. Those actions include pre-discharge and post-discharge interventions to reduce risk. However, traditional prediction models have been developed to support only post-discharge actions; predicting risk of adverse events at the time of discharge only. In this paper we develop an integrated framework of risk prediction and discharge optimization that supports both types of interventions: discharge timing and post-discharge monitoring. Our method combines a kernel approach for capturing the non-linear relationship between length of stay and risk of an adverse event, with a Principle Component Analysis method that makes the resulting estimation tractable. We then demonstrate how this prediction model could be used to support both types of interventions by developing a simple and easily implementable discharge timing optimization.

    Abstract The emergence and progression of multiple chronic conditions (MCC) over time often form a dynamic network that depends on patient's modifiable risk factors and their interaction with non-modifiable risk factors and existing conditions. Continuous time Bayesian networks (CTBNs) are effective methods for modeling the complex network of MCC relationships over time. However, CTBNs are not able to effectively formulate the dynamic impact of patient's modifiable risk factors on the emergence and progression of MCC. Considering a functional CTBN (FCTBN) to represent the underlying structure of the MCC relationships with respect to individuals' risk factors and existing conditions, we propose a nonlinear state-space model based on Extended Kalman filter (EKF) to capture the dynamics of the patients' modifiable risk factors and existing conditions on the MCC evolution over time. We also develop a tensor control chart to dynamically monitor the effect of changes in the modifiable risk factors of individual patients on the risk of new chronic conditions emergence. We validate the proposed approach based on a combination of simulation and real data from a dataset of 385 patients from Cameron County Hispanic Cohort (CCHC) over multiple years. The dataset examines the emergence of 5 chronic conditions (Diabetes, Obesity, Cognitive Impairment, Hyperlipidemia, and Hypertension) based on 4 modifiable risk factors representing lifestyle behaviors (Diet, Exercise, Smoking Habit, and Drinking Habit) and 3 non-modifiable risk factors, including demographic information (Age, Gender, Education). The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology for dynamic prediction and monitoring of the risk of MCC emergence in individual patients.

    Abstract Multiple chronic conditions (MCC) are one of the biggest challenges of modern times. The evolution of MCC follows a complex stochastic process that is influenced by a variety of risk factors, ranging from pre-existing conditions to modifiable lifestyle behavioral factors (e.g. diet, exercise habits, tobacco use, alcohol use, etc.) to non-modifiable socio-demographic factors (e.g., age, gender, education, marital status, etc.). People with MCC are at an increased risk of new chronic conditions and mortality. This paper proposes a model predictive control functional continuous time Bayesian network, an online recursive method to examine the impact of various lifestyle behavioral changes on the emergence trajectories of MCC and generate strategies to minimize the risk of progression of chronic conditions in individual patients. The proposed method is validated based on the Cameron county Hispanic cohort (CCHC) dataset, which has a total of 385 patients. The dataset examines the emergence of 5 chronic conditions (diabetes, obesity, cognitive impairment, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension) based on four modifiable risk factors representing lifestyle behaviors (diet, exercise habits, tobacco use, alcohol use) and four non-modifiable risk factors, including socio-demographic information (age, gender, education, marital status). The proposed method is tested under different scenarios (e.g., age group, the prior existence of MCC), demonstrating the effective intervention strategies for improving the lifestyle behavioral risk factors to offset MCC evolution.

    Abstract Background: It is important but challenging to understand the interactions of multiple chronic conditions (MCC) and how they develop over time in patients and populations. Clinical data on MCC can now be represented using graphical models to study their interaction and identify the path toward the development of MCC. However, the current graphical models representing MCC are often complex and difficult to analyze. Therefore, it is necessary to develop improved methods for generating these models.
    Objective: This study aimed to summarize the complex graphical models of MCC interactions to improve comprehension and aid analysis.
    Methods: We examined the emergence of 5 chronic medical conditions (ie, traumatic brain injury [TBI], posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], depression [Depr], substance abuse [SuAb], and back pain [BaPa]) over 5 years among 257,633 veteran patients. We developed 3 algorithms that utilize the second eigenvalue of the graph Laplacian to summarize the complex graphical models of MCC by removing less significant edges. The first algorithm learns a sparse probabilistic graphical model of MCC interactions directly from the data. The second algorithm summarizes an existing probabilistic graphical model of MCC interactions when a supporting data set is available. The third algorithm, which is a variation of the second algorithm, summarizes the existing graphical model of MCC interactions with no supporting data. Finally, we examined the coappearance of the 100 most common terms in the literature of MCC to validate the performance of the proposed model.
    Results: The proposed summarization algorithms demonstrate considerable performance in extracting major connections among MCC without reducing the predictive accuracy of the resulting graphical models. For the model learned directly from the data, the area under the curve (AUC) performance for predicting TBI, PTSD, BaPa, SuAb, and Depr, respectively, during the next 4 years is as follows-year 2: 79.91%, 84.04%, 78.83%, 82.50%, and 81.47%; year 3: 76.23%, 80.61%, 73.51%, 79.84%, and 77.13%; year 4: 72.38%, 78.22%, 72.96%, 77.92%, and 72.65%; and year 5: 69.51%, 76.15%, 73.04%, 76.72%, and 69.99%, respectively. This demonstrates an overall 12.07% increase in the cumulative sum of AUC in comparison with the classic multilevel temporal Bayesian network.
    Conclusions: Using graph summarization can improve the interpretability and the predictive power of the complex graphical models of MCC.
