Abstract

Introduction: Tools developed to assess individuals' comprehensive health status would be beneficial for personalized prevention and treatment. This study aimed to develop a set of risk prediction models to estimate the risk for multiple diseases such as heart, blood vessel, brain, metabolic, liver, and kidney diseases using health checkup data only.

Methods: This is a retrospective study that used health checkup data combined with diagnostic information from electronic health records of Kurashiki Central Hospital in Okayama, Japan. All exposure factors were measured at the first health checkup visit, including demographic characteristics, laboratory test results, lifestyle questionnaires, medication use, and medical history. Primary outcomes were the diagnoses of 15 diseases during the follow-up period. Cox proportional hazard regression was applied to develop risk prediction models for heart, blood vessel, brain, metabolic, liver, and kidney diseases. Area under the curve with 4-year risk assessments were performed to evaluate the models.

Results: From January 2012 to September 2022, a total of 92,174 individuals aged 15-96 years underwent general health checkups. The area under the curve of the models in validation datasets was as follows: atrial fibrillation, 0.81; acute myocardial infarction, 0.81; heart failure, 0.76; cardiomyopathy, 0.72; angina pectoris, 0.70; atherosclerosis, 0.82; hypertension, 0.80; cerebral infarction, 0.77; intracerebral hemorrhage, 0.68; subarachnoid hemorrhage, 0.50; type-2 diabetes mellitus, 0.82; hyperlipidemia, 0.70; alcoholic liver disease, 0.91; liver fibrosis, 0.92; and chronic kidney disease, 0.80.

Conclusions: A set of prediction models to estimate multi-disease risk simultaneously from health checkup results may help to assess comprehensive individual health status and facilitate personalized prevention and early diagnosis.
