Thus, it is essential to identify and mitigate MSKI risks. Time-to-event machine learning models utilizing self-reported questionnaires or existing data (e. g., electronic health records) may aid in creating e􀀈cient risk screening tools.  \nMethods: A total of 4,222U. S. Army Service members completed a self-report MSKI risk screen as part of their unit’s standard in-processing. Additionally, participants’ MSKI and demographic data were abstracted from electronic health record data. Survival machine learning models (Cox proportional hazard regression (COX), COX with splines, conditional inference trees, and random forest) were deployed to develop a predictive model on the training data (75%; n = 2,963) for MSKI risk over varying time horizons (30, 90, 180, and 365 days) and were evaluated on the testing data (25%; n = 987) . Probability of predicted risk (0.00–1.00) from the ﬁnal model stratiﬁed Service members into quartiles based on MSKI risk.  \nResults: The COX model demonstrated the best model performance over the time horizons. The time-dependent area under the curve ranged from 0 . 73 to 0. 70 at 30 and 180 days. The index prediction accuracy (IPA) was 12% better at 180 days than the IPA of the null model (0 variables) . Within the COX model,“other” race, more self-reported pain items during the movement screens, female gender, and prior MSKI demonstrated the largest hazard ratios. When predicted probability was binned into quartiles, at 180 days, the highest risk bin had an MSKI incidence rate of 2,130 .82 􀀆 171. 15 per 1,000 person-years and incidence rate ratio of 4 . 74 (95% conﬁdence interval: 3 .44, 6 . 54) compared to the lowest risk bin.  \nConclusion: Self-reported questionnaires and existing data can be used to create a machine learning algorithm to identify Service members’MSKI risk proﬁles. Further research should develop more granular Service member-speciﬁc MSKI screening tools and create MSKI risk mitigati","cbCaidlkbcxpcdIJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidlkbcxpcdIJ","pdf",2694591,1,13,"English","en",105,"# Background\n# Methods\n## Data sources and participant cohort\n## Survival model development and evaluation\n# Results\n# Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the study address?\",\"answer\":\"The study targets the need to identify and mitigate musculoskeletal injury (MSKI) risks in military servicemembers using efficient, deployable screening approaches.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the predictive model built and tested?\",\"answer\":\"Self-report MSKI risk screens were combined with electronic health record demographic and MSKI data.
