Abstract:The COVID-19 pandemic has had far-reaching implications for global public health. As we continue to grapple with its consequences, it becomes increasingly clear that post-COVID-19 complications are a significant concern. Among these complications, renal impairment has garnered particular attention due to its potential long-term health impacts. This study, conducted with a cohort of 821 post-COVID-19 patients from diverse regions of Iraq across the years 2021, 2022, and 2023, endeavors to predict the risk of long-term renal impairment using advanced machine learning algorithms. Our findings have the potential to revolutionize post-COVID-19 patient care by enabling early identification and intervention for those at risk of renal impairment, ultimately improving clinical outcomes. This research encompasses comprehensive data collection and preprocessing, feature selection, and the development of predictive models using various machine learning algorithms. The study's objectives are to assess the incidence of long-term renal impairment in post-COVID-19 patients, identify associated risk factors, create predictive models, and evaluate their accuracy. We anticipate that our machine learning models, drawing from a rich dataset, will provide valuable insights into the risk of renal impairment, ultimately enhancing patient care and quality of life. In conclusion, the research presented herein offers a critical contribution to the field of post-COVID-19 care. By harnessing the power of machine learning, we aim to predict long-term renal impairment risk accurately. These predictions have the potential to inform healthcare professionals, enabling them to take proactive measures and provide targeted interventions for post-COVID-19 patients at risk of renal complications, thus minimizing the impact of this serious health concern.
Abstract:The COVID-19 pandemic has globally posed numerous health challenges, notably the emergence of post-COVID-19 cardiovascular complications. This study addresses this by utilizing data-driven machine learning models to predict such complications in 352 post-COVID-19 patients from Iraq. Clinical data, including demographics, comorbidities, lab results, and imaging, were collected and used to construct predictive models. These models, leveraging various machine learning algorithms, demonstrated commendable performance in identifying patients at risk. Early detection through these models promises timely interventions and improved outcomes. In conclusion, this research underscores the potential of data-driven machine learning for predicting post-COVID-19 cardiovascular complications, emphasizing the need for continued validation and research in diverse clinical settings.
Abstract:In this study, we leveraged machine learning techniques to identify risk factors associated with post-COVID-19 mental health disorders. Our analysis, based on data collected from 669 patients across various provinces in Iraq, yielded valuable insights. We found that age, gender, and geographical region of residence were significant demographic factors influencing the likelihood of developing mental health disorders in post-COVID-19 patients. Additionally, comorbidities and the severity of COVID-19 illness were important clinical predictors. Psychosocial factors, such as social support, coping strategies, and perceived stress levels, also played a substantial role. Our findings emphasize the complex interplay of multiple factors in the development of mental health disorders following COVID-19 recovery. Healthcare providers and policymakers should consider these risk factors when designing targeted interventions and support systems for individuals at risk. Machine learning-based approaches can provide a valuable tool for predicting and preventing adverse mental health outcomes in post-COVID-19 patients. Further research and prospective studies are needed to validate these findings and enhance our understanding of the long-term psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study contributes to the growing body of knowledge regarding the mental health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to address the diverse needs of individuals on the path to recovery.

Abstract:In the year 2022, a total of 466 patients from various cities across Iraq were included in this study. This research paper focuses on the application of machine learning techniques to analyse and predict multi-organ dysfunction in individuals experiencing Post-COVID-19 Syndrome, commonly known as Long COVID. Post-COVID-19 Syndrome presents a wide array of persistent symptoms affecting various organ systems, posing a significant challenge to healthcare. Leveraging the power of artificial intelligence, this study aims to enhance early detection and management of this complex condition. The paper outlines the importance of data collection and preprocessing, feature selection and engineering, model development and validation, and ethical considerations in conducting research in this field. By improving our understanding of Post-COVID-19 Syndrome through machine learning, healthcare providers can identify at-risk individuals and offer timely interventions, potentially improving patient outcomes and quality of life. Further research is essential to refine models, validate their clinical utility, and explore treatment options for Long COVID.
