- Abstract
- Depression is a mental illness that causes significant disturbances in daily life. Depression is commonly associated with low mood, severe health problems, and substantial socioeconomic burden; hence, it is necessary to be able to detect depression earlier. We utilized the medical check-up cohort database of the National Health Insurance Sharing Service in Korea. We split the total dataset into training (70%) and test (30%) sets. Subsequently, five-fold cross validation was performed in the training set. The holdout test set was only used in the last step to evaluate the performance of the predictive model. Random forest algorithm was used for the predictive model. The analysis included 433,190 individuals who had a national medical check-up from 2009–2015, which included 10,824 (2.56%) patients in the depression group. The area under the receiver-operating curve was 0.849. Other performance metrics included a sensitivity of 0.737, specificity of 0.824, positive predictive value of 0.097, negative predictive value of 0.992, and accuracy of 0.780. Our predictive model could contribute to proactively reducing depression prevalence by administering interventions to prevent depression in patients receiving medical check-up. Future studies are needed to prospectively validate the predictability of this model. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
