Abstract Background Prediction of short-term outcomes in young patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) may assist in making therapy decisions. Machine learning (ML) is increasingly used in healthcare due to its high accuracy. This study aims to use a ML-based predictive model for poor 3-month functional outcomes in young AIS patients and to compare the predictive performance of ML models with the logistic regression model. Methods We enrolled AIS patients aged between 18 and 50 years from the Third Chinese National Stroke Registry (CNSR-III), collected between 2015 and 2018. A modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≥ 3 was a poor functional outcome at 3 months. Four ML tree models were developed: The extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Light Gradient Boosted Machine (lightGBM), Random Forest (RF), and The Gradient Boosting Decision Trees (GBDT), compared with logistic regression. We assess the model performance based on both discrimination and calibration. Results A total of 2268 young patients with a mean age of 44.3 ± 5.5 years were included. Among them, (9%) had poor functional outcomes. The mRS at admission, living alone conditions, and high National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at discharge remained independent predictors of poor 3-month outcomes. The best AUC in the test group was XGBoost (AUC = 0.801), followed by GBDT, RF, and lightGBM (AUCs of 0.795, 0, 794, and 0.792, respectively). The XGBoost, RF, and lightGBM models were significantly better than logistic regression (P |
