The National Survey on Drug, Alcohol and Tobacco, 2016-2017, notes that 15.6 million Mexicans are active smokers and, by 2030, expect the death of 8 million cancers of the larynx or lung. Therefore, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends detecting precancerous lesions of the larynx. This is possible, as they are characterized by a biomarker pattern manifested by the alteration of the biomechanical interpretation of the vocal cords, regardless of the sex and age of the smoker. The goal of this article is to evaluate three machine learning methods: neural networks, Gaussian networks, and decision tree to determine the method that best solves the problem of detecting patterns of precancerous vocal cord injury biomarkers. It uses the WEKA tool and a knowledge bank, endorsed by NOM-012-SSA3-2012, with 250 patterns, and provided by the Luis Guillermo Ibarra National Institute of Rehabilitation, Ibarra. The performance of the methods was compared by ROC curves and confusion matrices, under the criteria established by ISO-5725. The decision tree the method that best responds to the detection of patterns of biomarkers of precancerous lesions of the vocal cords.

Air pollution indicates contaminated air which arises due to the effect of physical, biological or chemical alteration to the air in the atmosphere applicable both for indoors and outdoors. This situation arises when poisonous gases, dust or smoke enter into the atmosphere and make the surroundings vulnerable for any living beings as well as difficult for them to survive. Large numbers of premature deaths happen across the globe if exposed to these pollutants on a long-term basis as major portion of the cities have the pollution level above the threshold determined by World Health Organization (WHO). So appropriate measures need to be taken on a priority basis to reduce air pollution as well as save our planet. This paper proposes a novel air pollution reduction approach which collects source pollution data. After extraction of source data, it uses various databases (DBs) and then different decisions or classes are created. The decision tree was created with the help of Iterative Dichotomiser 3 (ID3) algorithm to implement the rule base appropriately depending on the air pollution level and a bunch of rule sets were derived from the decision tree further.

ABSTRACT Objectives: measure and compare the quality of life of neurogenic bladder patients using intermittent urinary catheterization who were going through rehabilitation in Brazil and Portugal. Method: multicenter, quantitative, cross-sectional, observational-analytic and correlational study executed in Brazil and Portugal. Two data collection tools were used, being one questionnaire with sociodemographic and clinical data and the World Health Organization Quality of Life-bref. Patients were included who were over 18 years of age, suffering from neurogenic urinary bladder and using intermittent urinary catheterization. Results: in the sample of Brazilian (n = 170) and Portuguese (n = 52) patients, respectively, most patients were single (87-51.2%; 25-48.1%), had finished primary education (47-45.3%; 31-59.6%) and were retired (70-41.2%; 21-40.4%). Spinal cord injury was the main cause of using the urinary catheter in both countries. The Brazilian patients presented higher mean quality of life scores in the psychological domain (68.9) and lower scores in the physical domain (58.9). The Portuguese patients presented higher scores in the psychological domain (68.4) and lower scores in the environment domain (59.4). The execution of intermittent urinary self-catheterization was significant for both countries. Conclusions: in the two countries, these patients’ quality of life can be determined by the improvement in the urinary symptoms, independence, self-confidence, social relationships and access to work activities.

Hati merupakan salah satu organ penting dalam tubuh manusia yang berfungsi untuk detoksifikasi racun atau penetral racun dari segala sesuatu yang masuk ke dalam tubuh kita, sehingga tubuh menjadi lebih sehat. Hati dapat terserang suatu penyakit yang mampu mengganggu tugasnya, apabila penyakit hati sudah menyerang maka racun akan tersebar ke seluruh tubuh dan membuat tubuh menjadi tidak sehat. Penyakit liver merupakan penyakit hati yang disebabkan oleh virus, alkohol, pola hidup dan lainnya. Menurut data WHO (World Health Organization) menunjukkan hampir 1,2 juta orang per tahun khususnya di Asia Tenggara dan Afrika mengalami kematian akibat terserang penyakit liver. Seseorang sering tidak menyadari atau terlambat mengetahui penyakit liver sehingga ketika diperiksa penyakit liver sudah parah, akan lebih baik apabila dilakukan penanganan lebih awal dengan mengetahui gejala-gejala yang diderita. Data mining mampu membantu diagnosa penyakit liver dengan lebih mudah terutama untuk membantu para dokter dalam menentukan apakah pasien menderita penyakit liver atau tidak, dengan gejala hampir mendekati penyakit liver. Proses diagnosa penyakit liver dilakukan dengan proses klasifikasi dan hasilnya berupa pasien tersebut menderita liver atau tidak. Penelitian ini menggunakan 4 algoritma data mining yaitu Naïve Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Decision Tree dan Neural Network. Dataset yang digunakan yaitu Indian Liver Patient Dataset (ILPD) dari website UCI Machine Learning Repository. Keempat algoritma tersebut dibandingkan manakah yang lebih baik akurasinya untuk kasus diagnosa penyakit liver. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa algoritma Naïve Bayes memiliki akurasi 55,75%, algoritma K-Nearest Neigbor memiliki akurasi 66,36%, algoritma Decision Tree memiliki akurasi 67,04%, dan algoritma Neural Network memiliki akurasi 70,50%. Akurasi tersebut tergolong rendah karena kelas atau label antara pasien penyakit liver dan pasien tidak memiliki liver tidaklah seimbang, kelas pasien penyakit liver lebih banyak dibandingkan pasien tidak memiliki liver, sehingga banyak data yang diklasifikasikan sebagai pasien penyakit liver. Keywords— Data Mining, Decision Tree, Klasifikasi, KNN, Liver, Naïve Bayes, Neural Network

Introduction. According to the World Health Organization (2020), obesity is a growing problem worldwide. In fact, obesity is characterized as an epidemic. Objective. The aim of this paper is to use a logistic regression model as one of the generalized linear models and decision tree as one of the machine learning in order to assess the knowledge of the risk factors for obesity among citizens in Saudi Arabia. Methods and Materials. A cross-sectional questionnaire was given to the general population in KSA, using Google forms, to collect data. A total of 1369 people responded. Results. The findings showed that there is widespread knowledge of risk factors for obesity among citizens in Saudi Arabia. Participants’ knowledge of risk factors was very high (95.5%). In addition, a significant association was found between demographics (gender, age, and level of education) and knowledge of risk factors for obesity, in assessing variables for knowledge of the risk factors for obesity in relation to the demographics of gender and level of education. In addition, from decision tree results, we found that level of education and marital status were the most important variables to affect knowledge of risk factors for obesity among respondents. The accuracy of correctly classified cases was 95.5%, the same in logistic regression and decision tree. Conclusion. The majority of participants saw regular exercise and diet as an essential way to reduce obesity; however, awareness campaigns should be maintained in order to avoid complacency and combat the disease.
