Retrospective Examination of Risk Factors Affecting Iron Deficiency Anemia Using Machine Learning Methods
Abstract
Iron deficiency anemia is one of the most common types of anemia worldwide. In recent years, new developments in the field of medicine have offered early diagnosis and treatment opportunities for anemia patients. In the field of data science, in parallel with the developments in medicine, significant developments are taking place in subjects such as data collection, storage, processing, and reporting. Interdisciplinary joint studies positively contribute to patients’ quality of life and lifespan. In this study, the accuracy of the statistical results was tested with Machine Learning Method (MLM) while investigating the factors that affect the correct prediction of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) diagnosis. In the first stage, the relationships between all variables in the data set and their effects on the differentiation of disease groups were investigated using univariate and multivariate statistical methods. In the second step, the data set was analyzed in detail using four different methods with Artificial Neural Network (ANN) classifier. Weka 3.8 application was preferred for these operations. In the last stage, the results obtained in both stages were compared. Accordingly, it has been observed that hemoglobin (Hb), mean cell volume (MCV), iron (Fe), and ferritin (FERR) have more effects on IDA. ANN (98.06%) is a better discriminator with a correct classification rate
