Predicted 10-year cardiometabolic risk among hospital staff: a cross-sectional study

Objective

Chronic diseases and cardiometabolic disorders are major public health and occupational health challenges in Taiwan, particularly among healthcare workers exposed to shift work, high occupational stress, and irregular schedules. Nurses and hospital staff are especially vulnerable to hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, stroke, and cardiovascular disease risk. Using a localized digital risk assessment platform and machine learning-based data-driven modeling, this study aimed to evaluate chronic disease risk among medical center employees and identify high-risk occupational subgroups for precision health management.
