Objective:

To develop interpretable mathematical models for predicting early-onset hypertension using a symbolic regression approach.

Key Findings:
  • DSRegPSOP produced compact analytical expressions with predictive performance comparable to state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms.
  • The models revealed clinically meaningful predictors of early-onset hypertension.
Interpretation:

DSRegPSOP provides a transparent and interpretable model for hypertension risk assessment.

Limitations:
  • The findings require external validation on independent cohorts.
Conclusion:

DSRegPSOP shows promising potential to support early prevention strategies for hypertension.
