Logistic regression model refers a regress analysis contains two types of variants. In geohazard analysis, each geological factor can be defined as independent variable, whether a geohazard happened or not can be defined as a dependent variable. 1 represents an occurrence of a hazard while 0 represents a hazard doesn’t break out. Because those factors aren’t continual variable, lineal regress is inadequate to deduce the relationship of such kind of independent and dependent variable. Therefore using logistic regress method is a feasible way to solve such technique problem.

Aim: Metabolic syndrome (MS) screening is essential for the early detection of the occupational population. This study aimed to screen out biomarkers related to MS and establish a risk assessment and prediction model for the routine physical examination of an occupational population.Methods: The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) regression algorithm of machine learning was used to screen biomarkers related to MS. Then, the accuracy of the logistic regression model was further verified based on the Lasso regression algorithm. The areas under the receiving operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate the selection accuracy of biomarkers in identifying MS subjects with risk. The screened biomarkers were used to establish a logistic regression model and calculate the odds ratio (OR) of the corresponding biomarkers. A nomogram risk prediction model was established based on the selected biomarkers, and the consistency index (C-index) and calibration curve were derived.Results: A total of 2,844 occupational workers were included, and 10 biomarkers related to MS were screened. The number of non-MS cases was 2,189 and that of MS was 655. The area under the curve (AUC) value for non-Lasso and Lasso logistic regression was 0.652 and 0.907, respectively. The established risk assessment model revealed that the main risk biomarkers were absolute basophil count (OR: 3.38, CI:1.05–6.85), platelet packed volume (OR: 2.63, CI:2.31–3.79), leukocyte count (OR: 2.01, CI:1.79–2.19), red blood cell count (OR: 1.99, CI:1.80–2.71), and alanine aminotransferase level (OR: 1.53, CI:1.12–1.98). Furthermore, favorable results with C-indexes (0.840) and calibration curves closer to ideal curves indicated the accurate predictive ability of this nomogram.Conclusions: The risk assessment model based on the Lasso logistic regression algorithm helped identify MS with high accuracy in physically examining an occupational population.

Finally, the screened biomarkers were used to establish a logistic regression model and calculate the odds ratio (OR) of the corresponding biomarkers. Results: A total of 2844 occupational workers were included, and 10 biomarkers related to MS were screened.

Credit risk assessment of agricultural enterprises in the Republic of Serbia was analyzed in this research by applying discriminant analysis and logistic regressions. The aim of the research is to determine the financial indicators which financial analysts consider when analyzing a loan application that have the most influence on the decision to approve or reject a loan application. The internal determinants of credit risk of agricultural enterprises are analyzed, i.e., indicators of financial leverage, profitability, liquidity, solvency, financial stability and effectiveness. The analyzed models gave different results in significance of the observed indicators. The indicators that stood out as significant in both models are only indicators of profitability and solvency. The model of discriminant analysis has successfully classified rate 81.0%, while the logistic regression model has successfully classifies rate 89.8%. In modeling the credit risk of agricultural enterprises in the Republic of Serbia, the logistic regression model gives better results.

Prognostic factors for severe complications in tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) overdose remain unclear. We therefore evaluated the value of clinical characteristics and electrocardiograph (ECG) parameters to predict serious events (seizures, arrhythmia, death) in severe TCA overdose of 100 patients using logistic regression models for risk assessment. The overall fatality rate was 6%, arrhythmia occurred in 21% and 31% of the patients developed seizures. Using an univariable logistic regression model, the maximal QRS interval (OR 1.22; 95% CI 1.06-1.41; p = .005), the time lag between ingestion and occurrence of first symptoms of overdose (OR 1.13; 95% CI 0.99-1.29; p = .072) and the age (OR 0.73; 95% CI 0.55-0.98; p = .038) were determined as the solely predictive parameters. In the multivariable logistic regression model, the QRS interval could not be established as independent predictor, however, the terminal 40-ms frontal plane QRS vector (T40) reached statistical significance regarding prediction of serious events (odds ration [OR] 1.70; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-2.84; p = .041), along with age and time lag between ingestion and onset of symptoms of overdose with a sensitivity and specificity of 71% and 70%, respectively. Evaluation of both clinical characteristics and ECG-parameters in the early stage of TCA overdose may help to identify those patients who urgently need further aggressive medical observation and management.
