Popis: More than a quarter of all Americans are estimated to have multiple chronic conditions (MCC). It is known that shared modifiable lifestyle behaviors account for many common MCC. What is not precisely known is the dynamic effect of changes in lifestyle behaviors on the trajectories of MCC emergence. This paper proposes dynamic functional continuous time Bayesian networks to effectively formulate the dynamic effect of patients’ modifiable lifestyle behaviors and their interaction with non-modifiable demographics and preexisting conditions on the emergence of MCC. The proposed method considers the parameters of the conditional dependencies of MCC as a nonlinear state-space model and develops an extended Kalman filter to capture the dynamics of the modifiable risk factors on the MCC evolution. It also develops a tensor-based control chart based on the integration of multilinear principal component analysis and multivariate exponentially weighted moving average chart to monitor the effect of changes in the modifiable risk factors on the risk of new MCC. We validate the proposed method based on a combination of simulation and a real dataset of 385 patients from the Cameron County Hispanic Cohort. The dataset examines the emergence of 5 chronic conditions (Diabetes, Obesity, Cognitive Impairment, Hyperlipidemia, Hypertension) based on 4 modifiable lifestyle behaviors representing (Diet, Exercise, Smoking Habits, Drinking Habits) and 3 non-modifiable demographic risk factors (Age, Gender, Education). For the simulated study, the proposed algorithm shows a run-length of 4 samples (4 months) to identify behavioral changes with significant impacts on the risk of new MCC. For the real data study, the proposed algorithm shows a run-length of one sample (one year) to identify behavioral changes with significant impacts on the risk of new MCC. The results demonstrate the sensitivity of the proposed methodology for dynamic prediction and monitoring of the risk of MCC emergence in individual patients.
