Summary/Abstract: Numerous factors, together labelled as cardiometabolic risk (CMR), increase chances for developing cardiometabolic diseases. CMR estimation has a crucial role in the early prevention and enables the prompt treatment to prevent disease progression and complications. For this purpose several calculators and scoring systems were created, all based on similar, but not the same, input variables. CMR calculators are usually based on various statistical procedures and are result of previously conducted studies. Artificial neural network (ANN) is a method of artificial intelligence that has been recently applied for assessment of CMR in an easy, non-invasive and cheap way.
