Development of a risk assessment model for multimorbidity of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease with XGBoost in primary care in Shanghai, China: a retrospective study.

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
backgroundMultimorbidity has emerged as a growing global health concern. Within its heterogeneous patterns, the cardiometabolic cluster is notably among the most common. Assessing the risk of such multimorbidity from a general practice perspective has become a priority in primary care. This study aimed to develop a comprehensive risk assessment model for the multimorbidity of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease among older adults in the community, utilizing large-scale data from Shanghai, China.
methodsRetrospective data spanning 2017 to 2019 were collected from 40,261 residents across 47 community health centers. These data comprised residents' health records, health examination results, hospital information system (HIS) records, imaging databases, and lifestyle information. The XGBoost machine learning algorithm was utilized to construct a comprehensive risk assessment model for the multimorbidity of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease. Model performance was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, accuracy, precision, recall, and the F1 Score.
resultsThe dataset was split into training (80%) and testing (20%) sets. A total of 46 features were incorporated into the final comprehensive risk assessment model for the multimorbidity of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease. The optimal XGBoost model achieved a micro-average AUC of 0.822, a macro-average AUC of 0.795, and a weighted-average AUC of 0.784. These parameters demonstrate the high superiority of the constructed model.
conclusionsThe XGBoost-based risk assessment model for the multimorbidity of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease, integrated clinical and public health data from community residents. It identifies multidimensional predictors across four dimensions, underscoring its practical value in supporting integrated risk assessment and informing targeted health management strategies for individuals with multimorbidity.
