“… 63 , 71 Another limitation of this study is that both physical and psychosocial comorbidities were not included in the analysis although they have a significant impact on (sexual) QoL. 44 , 72 , 73 Unfortunately, data on cultural diversity were lacking, limiting the generalizability of the findings across different cultural contexts. Previous literature highlights the significant impact of cultural characteristics on sexuality and sexual function.…”

“…This is in line with findings from a British national survey on a cancer-free population 53 where sexual satisfaction and both the number and the type of comorbidities were negatively correlated. In a Chinese study, 3996 cancer survivors were asked about their sexual satisfaction, which was significantly associated with both the number and type of comorbidities 32 . Regarding our regression model, the highest variance explanation was found between the second and the third model.…”

Our study provides data on sexual satisfaction among long-term cancer survivors 5 and 10 years after diagnosis, and identifies factors detrimental (e.g. psychosocial and physical symptom burden) or beneficial (e.g. social support) to survivors’ sexual satisfaction. We measured sexual satisfaction among cancer survivors recruited via the local clinical cancer registry across a wide range of tumor sites 5 years (cohort 1) and 10 years (cohort 2) after diagnosis. We further assessed chronic comorbidity index (CCI) and symptom scales (EORTC QLQ-C30), depression (PHQ-9) and anxiety (GAD-7), satisfaction with partnership (PFB), quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30), and social support (OSSS). 924 patients (5‐year cohort = 608/10‐year cohort = 316) participated in the study (53% men, 80% cohabiting, mean age 66 years, range 18–85). We found that nearly half of the respondents perceived their sexual life as less satisfying than before cancer. High sexual satisfaction was associated with a low chronic comorbidities index (r = − 0.27, p < .001), less fatigue (r = − 0.35, p<.001), less nausea/vomiting (r = − 0.13, p<.001) and less pain (r = − 0.23, p<.001), r ; less depression (r = − 0.24, p < .001), less anxiety(r = − 0.23, p < .001); a high level of social support (r = 0.16, p < .001), a high level of satisfaction with their relationship (r = 0.24, p < .001), and high quality of life (r = 0.33, p < .001). Sexual satisfaction may be affected by both psychosocial and physical symptom burden, with the latter having a greater impact on sexual satisfaction. It is essential for health care providers that sexual health issues are understood, evaluated, and treated, including those of long-term cancer survivors.

“…For example, for news, entertainment news is less likely to be related to politics; for sentiment analysis, the emotional expression of “happiness” and “joy” often appears in the same comment [ 31 ]. However, the comorbidity of patients has a certain relationship with the population and region of disease [ 32 ]. It is not a simple linear correlation, and it is difficult to be reflected by the label data itself.…”

DLKN-MLC: A Disease Prediction Model via Multi-Label Learning

With the increasingly available electronic health records (EHR), disease prediction has recently gained immense research attention, where an accurate classifier needs to be trained to map the input prediction signals (e.g., symptoms, auxiliary examination results, etc.) to the estimated diseases for each patient. However, most of the current disease prediction models focus on the prediction of a single disease; in the medical field, a patient often suffers from multiple diseases (especially multiple chronic diseases) at the same time. Therefore, multi-disease prediction is of greater significance for patients’ early intervention and treatment, but there is no doubt that multi-disease prediction has higher requirements for data extraction ability and greater complexity of classification. In this paper, we propose a novel disease prediction model DLKN-MLC. The model extracts the information in EHR through deep learning combined with a disease knowledge network, quantifies the correlation between diseases through NodeRank, and completes multi-disease prediction. in addition, we distinguished the importance of common disease symptoms, occasional disease symptoms and auxiliary examination results in the process of disease diagnosis. In empirical and comparative experiments on real EHR datasets, the Hamming loss, one-error rate, ranking loss, average precision, and micro-F1 values of the DLKN-MLC model were 0.2624, 0.2136, 0.2190, 88.21%, and 87.86%, respectively, which were better compared with those from previous methods. Extensive experiments on a real-world EHR dataset have demonstrated the state-of-the-art performance of our proposed model.
