We use these outputs to define a continuous disease expression rate \(z_d(t)\). This quantity should be interpreted as how much disease \(d\) is model-implied to have formed or expressed by query time \(t\), not as true physiological damage. Based on \(z_d(t)\), we define two downstream indices: an organ involvement index, which summarizes whether an organ-age-inspired clinical system is involved by any related disease process, and a DeepHealth-HFRS frailty risk index, which is the original UK-HFRS weighted sum with binary disease occurrence replaced by continuous disease expression. \end{abstract} \section{Disease Expression Rate} For a patient queried at time \(t\), let the historical readout times be \[ t_0 < t_1 < \cdots < t_n \le t,\qquad t_{n+1}=t. \] For each interval \([t_i,t_{i+1}]\), DeepHealth produces a hidden state \(h_i=h(t_i)\) and an interval risk \[ q_{d,i}(t)=p_d(h_i,t_{i+1}-t_i). \] The model-implied disease expression rate is defined by noisy-or accumulation: \[ z_d(t) = 1-\prod_{i=0}^{n}\left[1-q_{d,i}(t)\right]. \] Informally, \(z_d(t)\) is the degree to which disease \(d\) is expressed in the patient by time \(t\). Unlike a raw diagnosis indicator, it is continuous and can reflect heterogeneity within the same ICD label. \section{Organ Involvement Index} The organ index is not a frailty score, health reserve score, or organ age. It is an organ involvement index. Let \(\mathcal{D}_k\) be the set of diseases assigned to organ/system \(k\). Define disease expression intensity as \[ \Lambda_d(t)=-\log\left[1-z_d(t)\right]. \] The equal-weight organ involvement index is \[ O_k(t) = 1-\exp\left( -\sum_{d\in\mathcal{D}_k}\Lambda_d(t) \right). \] Equivalently, \[ O_k(t) = 1- \prod_{d\in\mathcal{D}_k} \left[1-z_d(t)\right]. \] Thus \(O_k(t)\in[0,1]\) is the probability-like degree to which organ/system \(k\) is involved by at least one related disease process. In the current version all diseases assigned to the same organ are equally weighted; this is a first-stage structural definition. Future versions can introduce organ-specific disease weights \(\alpha_{k,d}\): \[ O_k(t) = 1-\exp\left( -\sum_{d\in\mathcal{D}_k}\alpha_{k,d}\Lambda_d(t) \right). \] \section{Organ List} The organ/system categories are inspired by organ-age studies, especially organ-specific plasma proteomic aging models, and are adapted to ICD disease labels. The current list is: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ll} \toprule ID & Label \\ \midrule brain\_neurologic & Brain and neurologic system \\ heart & Heart \\ artery\_vascular & Artery and vascular system \\ immune & Immune and infection-related system \\ intestine\_digestive & Intestine and digestive system \\ kidney & Kidney and urinary system \\ liver & Liver \\ lung & Lung and respiratory system \\ muscle\_musculoskeletal & Muscle and musculoskeletal system \\ pancreas\_endocrine & Pancreas and endocrine system \\ adipose\_metabolic & Adipose and metabolic system \\ female\_reproductive & Female reproductive system \\ male\_reproductive & Male reproductive system \\ neoplasm & Neoplasm \\ \bottomrule \end{tabular} \end{center} The neoplasm category is retained as a disease-system category rather than forced into a single anatomical organ. Sex-specific reproductive diseases are separated into female and male reproductive systems. \section{DeepHealth-HFRS Frailty Risk Index} The original UK-HFRS is a weighted sum over binary disease occurrence: \[ \operatorname{HFRS}^{\mathrm{obs}}(t) = \sum_{d\in\mathcal{D}_{\mathrm{HFRS}}} w^{\mathrm{HFRS}}_d\,o_d(t), \qquad o_d(t)\in\{0,1\}. \] DeepHealth-HFRS keeps the published UK-HFRS weights and replaces the binary disease state with the continuous DeepHealth disease expression rate: \[ \operatorname{HFRS}^{\mathrm{DH}}(t) = \sum_{d\in\mathcal{D}_{\mathrm{HFRS}}} w^{\mathrm{HFRS}}_d\,z_d(t), \qquad z_d(t)\in[0,1]. \] This is a natural continuous extension of the original HFRS, so it can still be called a frailty risk index. The semantic change is not the HFRS weight system; the change is the disease state variable. \section{Current Implementation} The current code computes historical current-state indices only. No future horizon is used. For each landmark age \(t\), it outputs: \begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*] \item \(z_d(t)\) internally as model-implied disease expression; \item \(O_k(t)\) as equal-weight organ involvement; \item \(\operatorname{HFRS}^{\mathrm{DH}}(t)\) as DeepHealth-HFRS frailty risk. \end{itemize} The output table uses the columns \[ \texttt{index\_type},\quad \texttt{index\_id},\quad \texttt{index\_label},\quad \texttt{index\_value}. \] \end{document}
