Objective At present, there is no early prediction model of left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) for people who are in cardiac arrest with an ejection fraction (EF) of ≤35% at first diagnosis; thus, the purpose of this article is to provide a supplement to existing research. Materials and methods A total of 109 patients suffering from heart attack with an EF of ≤35% at first diagnosis were involved in this single-center research study. LVRR was defined as an absolute increase in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from ≥10% to a final value of >35%, with analysis features including demographic characteristics, diseases, biochemical data, echocardiography, and drug therapy. Extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), random forest, and logistic regression algorithm models were used to distinguish between LVRR and non-LVRR cases and to obtain the most important features. Results There were 47 cases (42%) of LVRR in patients suffering from heart failure with an EF of ≤35% at first diagnosis after optimal drug therapy. General statistical analysis and machine learning methods were combined to exclude a number of significant feature groups. The median duration of disease in the LVRR group was significantly lower than that in the non-LVRR group (7 vs. 48 months); the mean values of creatine kinase (CK) and MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB) in the LVRR group were lower than those in the non-LVRR group (80.11 vs. 94.23 U/L; 2.61 vs. 2.99 ng/ml; 27.19 vs. 28.54 mm). Moreover, AUC values for our feature combinations ranged from 97 to 94% and to 87% when using the XGBoost, random forest, and logistic regression techniques, respectively. The ablation test revealed that beats per minute (BPM) and disease duration had a greater impact on the model’s ability to accurately forecast outcomes. Conclusion Shorter disease duration, slightly lower CK and CK-MB levels, slightly smaller right and left ventricular and left atrial dimensions, and lower mean heart rates were found to be most strongly predictive of LVRR development (BPM).
