Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a rare, chronic inflammatory condition that predominantly targets large blood vessels, notably the aorta and its major branches. Due to its nonspecific symptomatology, diagnosis and treatment are often delayed, which can lead to complications.

While the condition typically affects large arteries, it can occasionally involve the eyes, leading to anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, retinal artery occlusion, or cataracts. However,

Abstract:
Chronic conditions including diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension are becoming major worldwide health issues, and a growing number of them are related to lifestyle decisions. Even though conventional medical statistics like blood pressure and glucose levels are significant markers, they only provide a portion of the picture. The key to early disease identification and prevention is frequently found in lifestyle choices, such as what we eat, how much exercise we get, and whether or not we smoke. In this work, we explore how machine learning might be used to anticipate these illnesses by in

Abstract:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a non-communicable condition that often leads to renal failure, which is when the kidneys are no longer able to filter waste and excess fluid from the body's circulation. Early detection of CKD can slow the progression of the illness and reduce the overall cost of treatment. In this work, a novel approach for identifying CKD using a fuzzy logic system is proposed. The fuzzy system includes eight input parameters such as weight, age, serum creatinine, diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, glomerular filtration rate, blood glucose, and smoking.

The two leading causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are excessive blood pressure and diabetes. Researchers worldwide utilize the rate of globular filtration and kidney inflammation biomarkers to identify chronic kidney disease that gradually reduces renal function. The mortality rate for CKD is high, and thus, a person with this illness is more likely to pass away at a younger age. Healthcare professionals must diagnose the various illnesses connected to this deadly disease as promptly as possible to lighten the impact of CKD.

Although HT is initially asymptomatic, it eventually develops into a significant risk factor for renal, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular conditions, which in turn are major contributors to morbidity and mortality in industrialised nations. A complicated disorder called HT is thought to affect more than one-fourth of adult humans worldwide.
