Article Synopsis
  • The global incidence of hypertension is rising, with around 33% of adults affected, primarily due to metabolic dysfunction, emphasizing the need for new treatments.
  • This study aims to utilize explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to identify and explain novel metabolite biosignatures associated with hypertension in the Qatari population.
  • Key findings reveal elevated levels of Vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) linked to stage 1 hypertension and identify glycerophosphorylcholine (GPC), N-Stearoylsphingosine, and glycine as critical metabolites for predicting hypertension, with an effective classification accuracy of 78.13% from the model used.
