Abstract

Previous studies on CKD patients have mostly been retrospective, cross-sectional studies. Few studies have assessed the longitudinal assessment of patients over an extended period. In consideration of the heterogeneity of CKD progression. It’s critical to develop a longitudinal diagnosis and prognosis for CKD patients. We proposed an auto Machine Learning (ML) scheme in this study. It consists of four main parts: classification pipeline, cross-validation (CV), Taguchi method and improve strategies. This study includes datasets from 50,174 patients, data were collected from 32 chain clinics and three special physical examination centers, between 2015 and 2019. The proposed auto-ML scheme can auto-select the level of each strategy to associate with a classifier which finally shows an acceptable testing accuracy of 86.17%, balanced accuracy of 84.08%, sensitivity of 90.90% and specificity of 77.26%, precision of 88.27%, and F1 score of 89.57%. In addition, the experimental results showed that age, creatinine, high blood pressure, smoking are important risk factors, and has been proven in previous studies. Our auto-ML scheme light on the possibility of evaluation for the effectiveness of one or a combination of those risk factors. This methodology may provide essential information and longitudinal change for personalized treatment in the future.
