A machine learning-based prediction of diabetic retinopathy using the Korea national health and nutrition examination survey (2008–2012, 2017–2021)
The DR prediction models using machine learning techniques demonstrated reliable performance even without fundus imaging, with the random forest model showing particularly strong results. These models could assist in managing DR by identifying high-risk patients, enabling timely ophthalmic referrals.
