AD-CovNet: An exploratory analysis using a hybrid deep learning model to handle data imbalance, predict fatality, and risk factors in Alzheimer's patients with COVID-19.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia globally, with a growing morbidity burden that may exceed diagnosis and management capabilities. The situation worsens when AD patient fatalities are exposed to COVID-19.
