Heart-Disease

Problem

In a statment,

Given clincical parameters about a patient, can we predict whether or not they have heart disease?

Data

The orginal data comes from UCI Machine Learning Repository https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/heart+disease

There is also a version of it available on Kaggle https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/redwankarimsony/heart-disease-data

Data Dictionary

1. age - age in years
2. sex - (1 = male; 0 = female)
3. cp - chest pain type
   • 0: Typical angina: chest pain related decrease blood supply to the heart
   • 1: Atypical angina: chest pain not related to heart
   • 2: Non-anginal pain: typically esophageal spasms (non heart related)
   • 3: Asymptomatic: chest pain not showing signs of disease
4. trestbps - resting blood pressure (in mm Hg on admission to the hospital)
   • anything above 130-140 is typically cause for concern
5. chol - serum cholestoral in mg/dl
   • serum = LDL + HDL + .2 * triglycerides
   • above 200 is cause for concern
6. fbs - (fasting blood sugar > 120 mg/dl) (1 = true; 0 = false)
   • '>126' mg/dL signals diabetes
7. restecg - resting electrocardiographic results
   • 0: Nothing to note
   • 1: ST-T Wave abnormality
     • can range from mild symptoms to severe problems
     • signals non-normal heart beat
   • 2: Possible or definite left ventricular hypertrophy
     • Enlarged heart's main pumping chamber
8. thalach - maximum heart rate achieved
9. exang - exercise induced angina (1 = yes; 0 = no)
10. oldpeak - ST depression induced by exercise relative to rest
    • looks at stress of heart during excercise
    • unhealthy heart will stress more
11. slope - the slope of the peak exercise ST segment
    • 0: Upsloping: better heart rate with excercise (uncommon)
    • 1: Flatsloping: minimal change (typical healthy heart)
    • 2: Downslopins: signs of unhealthy heart
12. ca - number of major vessels (0-3) colored by flourosopy
    • colored vessel means the doctor can see the blood passing through
    • the more blood movement the better (no clots)
13. thal - thalium stress result
    • 1,3: normal
    • 6: fixed defect: used to be defect but ok now
    • 7: reversable defect: no proper blood movement when excercising
14. target - have disease or not (1=yes, 0=no) (= the predicted attribute)
