objectives: coronary artery disease (cad) is caused by atherosclerosis in coronary arteries and results in cardiac arrest and heart attack. angiography is one of the most accurate methods to diagnose heart disease, it incurs high expenses and comes with side effects. data mining is the extraction of hidden predictive information and unknown data, patterns, relationships and knowledge by exploring the large data sets which are difficult to find and detect with traditional statistical methods. one of the biggest problems that prevent pattern recognition from functioning rapidly and effectively are the noisy and inconsistent data in databases. the present study intends to provide a data preparation method based on clustering algorithms for diagnosis coronary artery disease with higher efficiency and fewer errors. materials: in this study, the data under investigation was collected from a number of 303 persons referring to the heart unit in one of tehran-based hospitals within the time interval 2011 to 2013. it included 54 features. k-means algorithm is used for clustering based data preprocessing system for elimination of noisy and inconsistent data and naïve bayes, k nearest neighbor and decision tree are used for classification. another two feature subset selection methods for cleaning data are also used to make a comparison between clustering based method and attribute selection method. rapid miner software was adopted to conduct this study. results: findings of this research indicated that the suggested model will have the highest efficiency, 90.91. according to the results, the proposed method of performance is highly successful compared to other results attained and seems effective for pattern recognition applications.conclusion: with these results, the proposed method can be used in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease

Using Combined Descriptive and Predictive Methods of Data Mining for Coronary Artery Disease Prediction: a Case Study Approach

Heart disease is one of the major causes of morbidity in the world. Currently, large proportions of healthcare data are not processed properly, thus, failing to be effectively used for decision making purposes. The risk of heart disease may be predicted via investigation of heart disease risk factors coupled with data mining knowledge. This paper presents a model developed using combined descri...

Designing and evaluation of a decision support system for prediction of coronary artery disease

Introduction: Since human health is the issue of Medical Research, correct prediction of results is of a high importance. This study applies probabilistic neural network (PNN) for predicting coronary artery disease (CAD), because the PNN is stronger than other methods. Methods: In this descriptive-analytic study, The PNN method was implemented on 150 patients admitted to the Mazandaran Heart...

Coronary artery calcium (CAC) score – a prognostic tool in coronary artery disease?

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of measurement of coronary artery calcification score (CAC) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) and a normal myocardial perfusion scan. Methods: In a prospective study we measured the calcium score of 74 patients (29 m, 45 f, mean age 58.7 (m) and 64.4 (f)) with suspicion of CAD and a normal perfusion scan. In ...

Oral Health and Coronary Artery Disease, A Review Article

Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke. Various risk factors have been identified for atherosclerosis. Recently, bacterial and viral organisms, which are involved in chronic inflammatory processes, have been also implicated in atherosclerosis development. Individuals with a prior history of periodontal diseases and/or tooth loss are considered to be...
