Using an adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system for prediction of successful aging: a comparison with common machine learning algorithms.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe global society is currently facing a rise in the elderly population. The concept of successful aging (SA) appeared in the gerontological literature to overcome the challenges and problems of population aging. SA is a subjective and multidimensional concept with many ambiguities regarding its meaning or measuring. This study aimed to propose an intelligent predictive model to predict SA.
methodsIn this retrospective study, the data of 784 elderly people were used to develop and validate machine learning (ML) methods. Data pre-processing was first performed. First, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was proposed to predict SA. Then, the predictive performance of the proposed model was compared with three ML algorithms, including multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network, support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) based on accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and F-score metrics.
resultsThe findings indicated that the ANFIS model with gauss2mf built-in membership function (MF) outperformed the other models with accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and F-score of 91.57%, 95.18%, 92.31%, and 92.94%, respectively.
conclusionsThe predictive performance of ANFIS is more efficient than the other ML models in SA prediction. The development of a decision support system (DSS) using our prediction model can provide healthcare administrators and policymakers with a reliable and responsive tool to improve elderly outcomes.
