Predictive analytics for cardiac arrhythmia using machine intelligence
Myocardial Infarction (MI) is the primary cause of death worldwide. MI occurs when a plaque buildup in the inner surface of the coronary artery suddenly ruptures and prevents the blood flow. A heart attack is medically termed as MI. It is the irreversible damage caused by the prolonged ischemia. Ischemia is nothing but the heart organ doesn’t get enough blood and oxygen which is also termed as coronary artery disease or coronary
heart disease. The heart gets damaged if it has not received enough blood or oxygen. In connection to the damage of the heart, arrhythmia would occur. Arrhythmia is the problem based on the heart rhythm or rate of the heartbeat. Tachycardia, when there is a fast beat in the heart. Bradycardia, when the heart beats too slow. The common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation. The great concern is that the patient who has arrhythmia has to be treated immediately. They lose consciousness in a few minutes when the heart is not pumping enough blood mainly to the brain. Death occurs when the patient is not given emergency treatment. -

Ischemia is nothing but the heart organ doesn t get enough blood and oxygen which is also termed as coronary artery disease or coronary heart disease. The heart gets damaged if it has not received enough blood or oxygen. In connection to the damage of the heart, arrhythmia would occur. Arrhythmia is the problem based on the heart rhythm or rate of the heartbeat. Tachycardia, when there is a fast beat in the heart. Bradycardia, when the heart beats too slow. The common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation. The great concern is that the patient who has arrhythmia has to be treated immediately. They lose consciousness in a few minutes when the heart is not pumping enough blood mainly to the brain. Death occurs when the patient is not given emergency treatment. newline Treatment which is included in the emergency is defibrillation and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). CPR is an emergency procedure which is combined with the chest compressions. It is through artificial ventilation which gives manual effort, preserves the brain functions until further treatment for the restoration of spontaneous blood circulation. The common symptoms of sudden cardiac death are chest pain, shortness of breath, severe wheezing, irregular heartbeats, fainting etc. newlineHeart Scar tissue which is not like heart muscle. It doesn t contrast like the normal heart muscle. Heart muscles get damaged for the heart attack patient based on the time of the treatment. The damage of the heart is based on the blockage of the artery. Arrhythmia can be predicted based on the volume of the scar region in the heart. Arrhythmia patients are treated by fixing Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD). -

Predictive Analytics for Stock Price Forecasting: Machine Learning Techniques in Financial Markets
Stock market forecasting is significantly challenging because financial data generally exhibits non-linearity, and volatility is highly presented. Traditional methods such as the ARIMA model and NN fail to take a good grasp of intricate and complex temporal patterns in changes related to market trends. By overcoming these limitations, it makes use of LSTM and combines GAN networks. The LSTM exploits the historical stock price data for temporal dependencies, whereas GAN produces realistic synthetic data to augment model training. The Stock Market Dataset was used, and the proposed model was implemented using Python with TensorFlow and PyTorch frameworks. The hybrid LSTM-GAN model resulted in better performance with an RMSE of 0.0125, MAE of 0.0093, and R2 of 0.926, thus outperforming LSTM and traditional forecasting models. This work greatly enhances the accuracy of forecasting, avoids overfitting, and promotes performance in volatile market environments. The results are extremely useful for investors, financial analysts, and trading platforms because they can make better predictions. 2025 IEEE. -

Predictive Modeling of Student Learning Outcomes Through Cognitive and Emotional Skill Integration
The interplay of factors, including both cognitive and non-cognitive, plays a significant role in the learning patterns of students. However, the majority of the research conducted on such issues mainly puts forward the role of cognitive skills but forgets that a very important role is played by the non-cognitive factor, specifically motivation and emotional intelligence. Therefore, this study focuses on bridging that gap by investigating the combined influence of cognitive and non-cognitive factors on the learning capacities of engineering students during their transition to higher education. A two-year longitudinal study on engineering students of AITAM, Tekele, India was considered in relation to their academic performance, learning preference, and socio-emotional aspects. The approach adopted makes use of predictive analytics. It is deployed here as machine learning algorithms in the form of Logistic Regression (LR), Naive Bayes, k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN), Decision Trees (DT), and Support Vector Machines (SVM) to classify the learners into very fast, fast, average, and slow learners. The algorithm of k-NN also achieved the highest accuracy classification and showed good robustness for learning the students' learning rates. This study underscores the combination of new teaching approaches as well as personalized self-learning methods to enhance learning performance, especially for slow learners. Indeed, the outcome gives avenues for much more extensive studies done on large datasets using advanced algorithms which can be applied across a range of educational fields to support tailored learning interventions. 2025, Iquz Galaxy Publisher.

Predictive Modeling of Substance Abuse Risks using Big Data Analytics and Social Media Mining
The worldwide increase in substance abuse among teenagers and young adults has become serious concern in recent times. One way this pattern has developed is through the evolution of social media. Social media has transformed people's attitudes towards certain behaviors and has encouraged risky behavior to the point of actually causing addiction by exposing them to drug-related material. Despite the existence of preventative measures, such as education programs in schools, many children and youth have not had adequate access to educational interventions or evidence-based measures due to barriers created by geography, economic circumstances, and social factors, particularly in less developed countries. The research proposed is focusing on addressing this gap using a big data approach. This research employs a unique analytical framework that integrates multiple large data sets from a variety of sources to better identify and assess the effectiveness of interventions. This model employs an analytical approach that uses statistical learning techniques and predictive analytics to identify historical patterns and anticipate future trends, and assess the effectiveness of various interventions conducted in different countries. The results of the analysis suggest that this big data approach will provide decision-makers with clearly documented evidence related to various risk-taking behaviors as they relate to available prevention interventions, and will assist decision-makers in developing targeted prevention intervention strategies. This study demonstrates the revolutionary aspect behind the application of computational intelligence in preventing substance abuse and informing evidence-based community health interventions. 2025 IEEE. -

Predictive value of IL-6, IL-1?, TNF-?, and vaginal pH in diagnosing vaginal microbial infections: A host-inflammatory axis perspective
Microbial-associated vaginal infections are common among women of reproductive age and are linked to alterations in the local immune environment. Inflammatory biomarkers such as IL-6, IL-?, and TNF-?, along with vaginal pH have emerged as potential indicators of microbial dysbiosis. This study aimed to statistically evaluate the ability of these specific inflammatory cytokines and vaginal pH to identify infection status. Cytokine concentrations and vaginal pH were measured in clinically characterized samples. The group differences were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U tests and Cliff's Delta for effect size. ROC-AUC analysis was also performed to assess the discriminative power, and correlation heatmaps explored marker synergy. The infected individuals showed increased levels of all cytokines (p < 0.001), with large effect size (? > 0.9 for IL-6, IL-1?, TNF-?). Vaginal pH also differed significantly (? = 0.60). In addition, the combination of IL-6 and vaginal pH achieved excellent discriminative performance (AUC = 0.98). These findings suggest that IL-6, IL-1?, and TNF-?, when combined with vaginal pH, can function as reliable non-invasive biomarkers for the early detection and improved diagnostic triaging of vaginal microbial infections. 2024 -
Predictors of behavioral and emotional issues in children involved in custody disputes: A cross sectional study in urban Bengaluru
Background: The increasing rates of divorce in urban India has led to the subsequent parental battle for the child's custody. This paper discusses the behavioral and emotional issues of these children in relation to their psychosocial environmental factors and other relevant socio-demographic variables. Methods: We used samples from parent interviews concerning 52 children aged 717-years-old, involved in child custody cases in the Family court of urban Bengaluru. The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire was used to measure response variables of behavioral and emotional issues in these children. Predictor models of quantile and multiple linear regression were used to assess the influence of psychosocial environmental factors and socio-demographic variables on the response variables. Results: The predictor models revealed that risk of child suffering emotional and behavioral issues increased with factors such as excessive parental control, change of academic environment, general unrest at school, frequency of child's court visit, child's visitation of non-custodian parent on occasions and vacations, and negatively altered family relationship. The model however intriguingly showed that residing in nuclear household rather than with their grandparents in a non-nuclear household, decreased the risk of mental health issues in these children. Conclusions: This study is a novel attempt to understand the influence of the psychosocial issues on the child's mental health in the context of custody cases in India. Despite the minimum sample size, the findings imply that family-based intervention is the need of the hour in these cases. The implications for clinical practice and research are discussed. 2021 Elsevier B.V. -
Predictors of compassion competence among nurses working in the non-profit healthcare sector in India
Objectives: For many years, the non-profit healthcare sector in India has been able to instil a sense of goodwill in the society through the provision of healthcare services, which are not only affordable and accessible, but also deliver compassionate care. This study was an attempt to evaluate the compassionate care and competence of the nurses working in India's non-profit healthcare sector, and to identify the predictive factors associated with their work environment and engagement. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of nurses working in the medical college hospitals managed by private trusts in the non-profit sector in India was conducted using an online questionnaire. The study was conducted in April 2021 after the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. Socio-demographic factors, compassion competence, nurse practice environment, and nurse engagement were assessed. Linear regression analysis was conducted to identify the variance and the predictors of compassion competence among Indian nurses. Results: We found that nurses practice environment (?=0.982, p=< .001) and engagement (?=0.842, p=< .001) predicted compassion competence during the Covid-19 pandemic. Moreover, nurse practice environment and engagement positively influenced compassion competence. Conclusion: There was a considerably high level of compassion competence among nurses working in the non-profit healthcare sector during the Covid-19 pandemic. The compassion phenomenon was statistically significantly impacted by the nurses practice environment and their level of engagement. Consequently, not only does competent compassion behaviour require positive work environments and engaged nurses, but also nurses compassion competence and its relationship with practice environment factors and engagement are critical in the non-profit healthcare sector in India. These findings support previous reviews that a high degree of compassion competence increases healthcare quality. 2024 Jismon, M. G., Rofin T. M., Thekkekkara, J. V., Asha K. C., & Vijesh P. V.
