[PMID: 38329808 PMCID: PMC10854439 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2024.2314235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, threatening both physical and mental health. The epidemiological evidence for association between sleep duration, depression and breast cancer is inconsistent. The aim of this study was to determine the association between them and build machine-learning algorithms to predict breast cancer. METHODS A total of 1,789 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were included in the study, and 263 breast cancer patients were identified. Sleep duration was collected using a standardized questionnaire, and the Nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was used to assess depression. Logistic regression yielded multivariable-adjusted breast cancer odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for sleep duration and depression. Then, six machine learning algorithms, including AdaBoost, random forest, Boost tree, artificial neural network, limit gradient enhancement and support vector machine, were used to predict the development of breast cancer and find out the best algorithm. RESULTS Body mass index (BMI), race and smoking were statistically different between breast cancer and non-breast cancer groups. Participants with depression were associated with breast cancer (OR = 1.99, 95%CI: 1.55-3.51). Compared with 7-9h of sleep, the ORs for <7 and >9 h of sleep were 1.25 (95% CI: 0.85-1.37) and 1.05 (95% CI: 0.95-1.15), respectively. The AdaBoost model outperformed other machine learning algorithms and predicted well for breast cancer, with an area under curve (AUC) of 0.84 (95%CI: 0.81-0.87). CONCLUSIONS No significant association was observed between sleep duration and breast cancer, and participants with depression were associated with an increased risk for breast cancer. This finding provides new clues into the relationship between breast cancer and depression and sleep duration, and provides potential evidence for subsequent studies of pathological mechanisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to develop and validate a prediction model in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) based on machine learning algorithms. METHODS Patients who met the criteria for inclusion were identified in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV (MIMIC-IV) database and divided according to the validation (n = 2440) and development (n = 9756, 80%) queues. Ensemble stepwise feature selection method was used to screen for effective features. The prediction models of short-term mortality were developed by seven machine learning algorithms. Ten-fold cross-validation was used to verify the performance of the algorithm in the development queue. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC) was used to evaluate the differentiation accuracy and performance of the prediction model in the validation queue. The best-performing model was interpreted by Shapley additive explanations (SHAP). RESULTS A total of 12,196 patients were enrolled in this study. Eleven variables were finally chosen to develop the prediction model. The AUC of the random forest (RF) model was the highest value both in the Ten-fold cross-validation and evaluation (AUC: 0.798, 95% CI: 0.774-0.821). According to the SHAP plots, old age, low Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, high AKI stage, reduced urine output, high Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS II), high respiratory rate, low temperature, low absolute lymphocyte count, high creatinine level, dysnatremia, and low body mass index (BMI) increased the risk of poor prognosis. CONCLUSIONS The RF model developed in this study is a good predictor of in-hospital mortality for patients with SA-AKI in the intensive care unit (ICU), which may have potential applications in mortality prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Predicting severe preeclampsia with need for intensive care is challenging. To better predict high-risk pregnancies to prevent adverse outcomes such as eclampsia is still an unmet need worldwide. In this study we aimed to develop a prediction model for severe outcomes using routine biomarkers and clinical characteristics. METHODS We used machine learning models based on data from an intensive care cohort with severe preeclampsia (n=41) and a cohort of preeclampsia controls (n=40) with the objective to find patterns for severe disease not detectable with traditional logistic regression models. RESULTS The best model was generated by including the laboratory parameters aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT), uric acid and body mass index (BMI) with a cross-validation accuracy of 0.88 and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.91. Our model was internally validated on a test-set where the accuracy was lower, 0.82, with an AUC of 0.85. CONCLUSION The clinical routine blood parameters ASAT and uric acid as well as BMI, were the parameters most indicative of severe disease. Aspartate aminotransferase reflects liver involvement, uric acid might be involved in several steps of the pathophysiologic process of preeclampsia, and obesity is a well-known risk factor for development of both severe and non-severe preeclampsia likely involving inflammatory pathways..[Figure: see text].

Abstract
ABSTRACT The delayed diagnosis of invasive fungal infection (IFI) is highly correlated with poor prognosis in patients. Early identification of high-risk patients with invasive fungal infections and timely implementation of targeted measures is beneficial for patients. The objective of this study was to develop a machine learning-based predictive model for invasive fungal infection in patients during their intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Retrospective data was extracted from adult patients in the MIMIC-IV database who spent a minimum of 48 h in the ICU. Feature selection was performed using LASSO regression, and the dataset was balanced using the BL-SMOTE approach. Predictive models were built using six machine learning algorithms. The Shapley additive explanation algorithm was used to assess the impact of various clinical features in the optimal model, enhancing interpretability. The study included 26,346 ICU patients, of whom 379 (1.44%) were diagnosed with invasive fungal infection. The predictive model was developed using 20 risk factors, and the dataset was balanced using the borderline-SMOTE (BL-SMOTE) algorithm. The BL-SMOTE random forest model demonstrated the highest predictive performance (area under curve = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.84-0.91). Shapley additive explanation analysis revealed that the three most influential clinical features in the BL-SMOTE random forest model were dialysis treatment, APSIII scores, and liver disease. The machine learning model provides a reliable tool for predicting the occurrence of IFI in ICU patients. The BL-SMOTE random forest model, based on 20 risk factors, exhibited superior predictive performance and can assist clinicians in early assessment of IFI occurrence in ICU patients. Importance: Invasive fungal infections are characterized by high incidence and high mortality rates characteristics. In this study, we developed a clinical prediction model for invasive fungal infections in critically ill patients based on machine learning algorithms. The results show that the machine learning model based on 20 clinical features has good predictive value.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to individuate and compare specific machine learning algorithms that could predict postoperative anterior elevation score after reverse shoulder arthroplasty surgery at different time points. Data from 105 patients who underwent reverse shoulder arthroplasty at the same institute have been collected with the purpose of generating algorithms which could predict the target. Twenty-eight features were extracted and applied to two different machine learning techniques: Linear regression and support vector regression (SVR). These two techniques were also compared in order to define to most faithfully predictive. Using the extracted features, the SVR algorithm resulted in a mean absolute error (MAE) of 11.6° and a classification accuracy (PCC) of 0.88 on the test-set. Linear regression, instead, resulted in a MAE of 13.0° and a PCC of 0.85 on the test-set. Our machine learning study demonstrates that machine learning could provide high predictive algorithms for anterior elevation after reverse shoulder arthroplasty. The differential analysis between the utilized techniques showed higher accuracy in prediction for the support vector regression.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recent advancements in medical imaging have transformed diagnostic assessments, offering exciting possibilities for extracting biomarker-based information. This study aims to investigate the capabilities of a machine learning classifier that incorporates dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) radiomics. The primary focus is on discerning and predicting outcomes related to pulmonary embolism (PE). METHODS The study included 131 participants who underwent pulmonary artery DECT angiography between January 2015 and March 2022. Among them, 104 patients received the final diagnosis of PE and 27 patients served as a control group. A total of 107 radiomic features were extracted for every case based on DECT imaging. The dataset was divided into training and test sets for model development and validation. Stepwise feature reduction identified the most relevant features, which were used to train a gradient-boosted tree model. Receiver operating characteristics analysis and Cox regression tests assessed the association of texture features with overall survival. RESULTS The trained machine learning classifier achieved a classification accuracy of 0.94 for identifying patients with acute PE with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.91. Radiomics features could be valuable for predicting outcomes in patients with PE, demonstrating strong prognostic capabilities in survival prediction (c-index, 0.991 [0.979-1.00], p = 0.0001) with a median follow-up of 130 days (IQR, 38-720). Notably, the inclusion of clinical or DECT parameters did not enhance predictive performance. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our study underscores the promising potential of leveraging radiomics on DECT imaging for the identification of patients with acute PE and predicting their outcomes. This approach has the potential to improve clinical decision-making and patient management, offering efficiencies in time and resources by utilizing existing DECT imaging without the need for an additional scoring system.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 128:155408.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the primary active compound in green tea, is recognized for its significant anti-inflammatory properties and potential pharmacological effects on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, comprehensive preclinical evidence supporting the use of EGCG in treating IBD is currently insufficient. PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of EGCG in animal models of IBD and explore potential underlying mechanisms, serving as a groundwork for future clinical investigations. METHODS A systematic review of pertinent preclinical studies published until September 1, 2023, in databases such as PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library was conducted, adhering to stringent quality criteria. The potential mechanisms via which EGCG may address IBD were summarized. STATA v16.0 was used to perform a meta-analysis to assess IBD pathology, inflammation, and indicators of oxidative stress. Additionally, dose-response analysis and machine learning models were utilized to evaluate the dose-effect relationship and determine the optimal dosage of EGCG for IBD treatment. RESULTS The analysis included 19 studies involving 309 animals. The findings suggest that EGCG can ameliorate IBD-related pathology in animals, with a reduction in inflammatory and oxidative stress indicators. These effects were observed through significant changes in histological scores, Disease Activity Index, Colitis Macroscopic Damage Index and colon length; a decrease in markers such as interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and interferon-γ; and alterations in malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, glutathione, and catalase levels. Subgroup analysis indicated that the oral administration route of EGCG exhibited superior efficacy over other administration routes. Dose-response analysis and machine learning outcomes highlighted an optimal EGCG dosage range of 32-62 mg/kg/day, with an intervention duration of 4.8-13.6 days. CONCLUSIONS EGCG exhibits positive effects on IBD, particularly when administered at the dose range of 32 - 62 mg/kg/day, primarily attributed to its ability to regulate inflammation and oxidative stress levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) can prolong hospitalization, increase medical costs, and even lead to higher mortality rates. Therefore, it is essential to predict the incidence of AAD in elderly intensive care unit(ICU) patients. The objective of this study was to create a prediction model that is both interpretable and generalizable for predicting the incidence of AAD in elderly ICU patients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data from the First Medical Center of the People's Liberation Army General Hospital (PLAGH) in China. We utilized the machine learning model Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Shapley's additive interpretation method to predict the incidence of AAD in elderly ICU patients in an interpretable manner. RESULTS A total of 848 adult ICU patients were eligible for this study. The XGBoost model predicted the incidence of AAD with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of 0.917, sensitivity of 0.889, specificity of 0.806, accuracy of 0.870, and an F1 score of 0.780. The XGBoost model outperformed the other models, including logistic regression, support vector machine (AUC = 0.809), K-nearest neighbor algorithm (AUC = 0.872), and plain Bayes (AUC = 0.774). CONCLUSIONS While the XGBoost model may not excel in absolute performance, it demonstrates superior predictive capabilities compared to other models in forecasting the incidence of AAD in elderly ICU patients categorized based on their characteristics.

Abstract
A significant number of intensive care unit (ICU) survivors experience new-onset functional impairments that impede their activities of daily living (ADL). Currently, no effective assessment tools are available to identify these high-risk patients. This study aims to develop an interpretable machine learning (ML) model for predicting the onset of functional impairment in critically ill patients. Data for this study were sourced from a comprehensive hospital in China, focusing on adult patients admitted to the ICU from August 2022 to August 2023 without prior functional impairments. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model was utilized to select predictors for inclusion in the model. Four models, logistic regression, support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), were constructed and validated. Model performance was assessed using the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV). Additionally, the DALEX package was employed to enhance the interpretability of the final models. The study ultimately included 1,380 patients, with 684 (49.6%) exhibiting new-onset functional impairment on the seventh day after leaving the ICU. Among the four models evaluated, the SVM model demonstrated the best performance, with an AUC of 0.909, accuracy of 0.838, sensitivity of 0.902, specificity of 0.772, PPV of 0.802, and NPV of 0.886. ML models are reliable tools for predicting new-onset functional impairments in critically ill patients. Notably, the SVM model emerged as the most effective, enabling early identification of patients at high risk and facilitating the implementation of timely interventions to improve ADL.

Development, comparison, and internal validation of prediction models to determine the visual prognosis of patients with open globe injuries using machine learning approaches. BMC Med Inform Decis Mak 2024; 24:131. [PMID: 38773484 PMCID: PMC11106970 DOI: 10.1186/s12911-024-02520-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Open globe injuries (OGI) represent a main preventable reason for blindness and visual impairment, particularly in developing countries. The goal of this study is evaluating key variables affecting the prognosis of open globe injuries and validating internally and comparing different machine learning models to estimate final visual acuity. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed three hundred patients with open globe injuries receiving treatment at Khatam-Al-Anbia Hospital in Iran from 2020 to 2022. Age, sex, type of trauma, initial VA grade, relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD), zone of trauma, traumatic cataract, traumatic optic neuropathy (TON), intraocular foreign body (IOFB), retinal detachment (RD), endophthalmitis, and ocular trauma score (OTS) grade were the input features. We calculated univariate and multivariate regression models to assess the association of different features with visual acuity (VA) outcomes. We predicted visual acuity using ten supervised machine learning algorithms including multinomial logistic regression (MLR), support vector machines (SVM), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), naïve bayes (NB), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), bagging (BG), adaptive boosting (ADA), artificial neural networks (ANN), and extreme gradient boosting (XGB). Accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), recall, F-score, brier score (BS), Matthew correlation coefficient (MCC), receiver operating characteristic (AUC-ROC), and calibration plot were used to assess how well machine learning algorithms performed in predicting the final VA. RESULTS The artificial neural network (ANN) model had the best accuracy to predict the final VA. The sensitivity, F1 score, PPV, accuracy, and MCC of the ANN model were 0.81, 0.85, 0.89, 0.93, and 0.81, respectively. In addition, the estimated AUC-ROC and AUR-PRC of the ANN model for OGI patients were 0.96 and 0.91, respectively. The brier score and calibration log-loss for the ANN model was 0.201 and 0.232, respectively. CONCLUSION As classic and ensemble ML models were compared, results shows that the ANN model was the best. As a result, the framework that has been presented may be regarded as a good substitute for predicting the final VA in OGI patients. Excellent predictive accuracy was shown by the open globe injury model developed in this study, which should be helpful to provide clinical advice to patients and making clinical decisions concerning the management of open globe injuries.

Abstract
This study intends to use the basic information and blood routine of schistosomiasis patients to establish a machine learning model for predicting liver fibrosis. We collected medical records of Schistosoma japonicum patients admitted to a hospital in China from June 2019 to June 2022. The method was to screen out the key variables and six different machine learning algorithms were used to establish prediction models. Finally, the optimal model was compared based on AUC, specificity, sensitivity and other indicators for further modeling. The interpretation of the model was shown by using the SHAP package. A total of 1049 patients' medical records were collected, and 10 key variables were screened for modeling using lasso method, including red cell distribution width-standard deviation (RDW-SD), Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), hematocrit (HCT), Red blood cells, Eosinophils, Monocytes, Lymphocytes, Neutrophils, Age. Among the 6 different machine learning algorithms, LightGBM performed the best, and its AUCs in the training set and validation set were 1 and 0.818, respectively. This study established a machine learning model for predicting liver fibrosis in patients with Schistosoma japonicum. The model could help improve the early diagnosis and provide early intervention for schistosomiasis patients with liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Autoimmune rheumatic diseases are chronic conditions affecting multiple systems and often occurring in young women of childbearing age. The diseases and the physiological characteristics of pregnancy significantly impact maternal-fetal health and pregnancy outcomes. Currently, the integration of big data with healthcare has led to the increasing popularity of using machine learning (ML) to mine clinical data for studying pregnancy complications. In this review, we introduce the basics of ML and the recent advances and trends of ML in different prediction applications for common pregnancy complications by autoimmune rheumatic diseases. Finally, the challenges and future for enhancing the accuracy, reliability, and clinical applicability of ML in prediction have been discussed. This review will provide insights into the utilization of ML in identifying and assisting clinical decision-making for pregnancy complications, while also establishing a foundation for exploring comprehensive management strategies for pregnancy and enhancing maternal and child health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a severe and life-threatening complication. Early diagnosis of MAS is particularly challenging. In this study, machine learning models and diagnostic scoring card were developed to aid in clinical decision-making using clinical characteristics. METHODS We retrospectively collected clinical data from 188 patients with either SLE or the MAS secondary to SLE. 13 significant clinical predictor variables were filtered out using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO). These variables were subsequently utilized as inputs in five machine learning models. The performance of the models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC), F1 score, and F2 score. To enhance clinical usability, we developed a diagnostic scoring card based on logistic regression (LR) analysis and Chi-Square binning, establishing probability thresholds and stratification for the card. Additionally, this study collected data from four other domestic hospitals for external validation. RESULTS Among all the machine learning models, the LR model demonstrates the highest level of performance in internal validation, achieving a ROC-AUC of 0.998, an F1 score of 0.96, and an F2 score of 0.952. The score card we constructed identifies the probability threshold at a score of 49, achieving a ROC-AUC of 0.994 and an F2 score of 0.936. The score results were categorized into five groups based on diagnostic probability: extremely low (below 5%), low (5-25%), normal (25-75%), high (75-95%), and extremely high (above 95%). During external validation, the performance evaluation revealed that the Support Vector Machine (SVM) model outperformed other models with an AUC value of 0.947, and the scorecard model has an AUC of 0.915. Additionally, we have established an online assessment system for early identification of MAS secondary to SLE. CONCLUSION Machine learning models can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy of MAS secondary to SLE, and the diagnostic scorecard model can facilitate personalized probabilistic predictions of disease occurrence in clinical environments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The conversion from a temporary to a permanent stoma (PS) following rectal cancer surgery significantly impacts the quality of life of patients. However, there is currently a lack of practical preoperative tools to predict PS formation. The purpose of this study is to establish a preoperative predictive model for PS using machine learning algorithms to guide clinical practice. METHODS In this retrospective study, we analyzed clinical data from a total of 655 patients who underwent anterior resection for rectal cancer, with 552 patients from one medical center and 103 from another. Through machine learning algorithms, five predictive models were developed, and each was thoroughly evaluated for predictive performance. The model with superior predictive accuracy underwent additional validation using both an independent testing cohort and the external validation cohort. The Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) approach was employed to elucidate the predictive factors influencing the model, providing an in-depth visual analysis of its decision-making process. RESULTS Eight variables were selected for the construction of the model. The support vector machine (SVM) model exhibited superior predictive performance in the training set, evidenced by an AUC of 0.854 (95 % CI:0.803-0.904). This performance was corroborated in both the testing set and external validation set, where the model demonstrated an AUC of 0.851 (95%CI:0.748-0.954) and 0.815 (95%CI:0.710-0.919), respectively, indicating its efficacy in identifying the PS. CONCLUSIONS The model(https://yangsu2023.shinyapps.io/psrisk/) indicated robust predictive performance in identifying PS after anterior resection for rectal cancer, potentially guiding surgeons in the preoperative stratification of patients, thus informing individualized treatment plans and improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The occurrence of pressure injury in patients with diabetes during ICU hospitalization can result in severe complications, including infections and non-healing wounds. AIMS The aim of this study was to predict the occurrence of pressure injury in ICU patients with diabetes using machine learning models. STUDY DESIGN In this study, LASSO regression was used for feature screening, XGBoost was employed for machine learning model construction, ROC curve analysis, calibration curve analysis, clinical decision curve analysis, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and F1 score were used for evaluating the model's performance. RESULTS Out of the 503 ICU patients with diabetes included in the study, pressure injury developed in 170 cases, resulting in an incidence rate of 33.8 %. The XGBoost model had a higher AUC for predicting pressure injury in patients with diabetes during ICU hospitalization (train: 0.896, 95 %CI: 0.863 to 0.929; test: 0.835, 95 % CI: 0.761-0.908). The importance of SHAP variables in the model from high to low was: 'Days in ICU', 'Mechanical Ventilation', 'Neutrophil Count', 'Consciousness', 'Glucose', and 'Warming Blanket'. CONCLUSION The XGBoost machine learning model we constructed has shown high performance in predicting the occurrence of pressure injury in ICU patients with diabetes. Additionally, the SHAP method enables the interpretation of the results provided by the machine learning model. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Improve the ability to predict the early occurrence of pressure injury in diabetic patients in the ICU. This will enable clinicians to intervene early and reduce the occurrence of complications.

Abstract
AIMS High-power-short-duration (HPSD) ablation is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation but poses risks of thermal injuries to the oesophagus and vagus nerve. This study aims to investigate incidence and predictors of thermal injuries, employing machine learning. METHODS AND RESULTS A prospective observational study was conducted at Leipzig Heart Centre, Germany, excluding patients with multiple prior ablations. All patients received Ablation Index-guided HPSD ablation and subsequent oesophagogastroduodenoscopy. A machine learning algorithm categorized ablation points by atrial location and analysed ablation data, including Ablation Index, focusing on the posterior wall. The study is registered in clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05709756). Between February 2021 and August 2023, 238 patients were enrolled, of whom 18 (7.6%; nine oesophagus, eight vagus nerve, one both) developed thermal injuries, including eight oesophageal erythemata, two ulcers, and no fistula. Higher mean force (15.8 ± 3.9 g vs. 13.6 ± 3.9 g, P = 0.022), ablation point quantity (61.50 ± 20.45 vs. 48.16 ± 19.60, P = 0.007), and total and maximum Ablation Index (24 114 ± 8765 vs. 18 894 ± 7863, P = 0.008; 499 ± 95 vs. 473 ± 44, P = 0.04, respectively) at the posterior wall, but not oesophagus location, correlated significantly with thermal injury occurrence. Patients with thermal injuries had significantly lower distances between left atrium and oesophagus (3.0 ± 1.5 mm vs. 4.4 ± 2.1 mm, P = 0.012) and smaller atrial surface areas (24.9 ± 6.5 cm2 vs. 29.5 ± 7.5 cm2, P = 0.032). CONCLUSION The low thermal lesion's rate (7.6%) during Ablation Index-guided HPSD ablation for atrial fibrillation is noteworthy. Machine learning based ablation data analysis identified several potential predictors of thermal injuries. The correlation between machine learning output and injury development suggests the potential for a clinical tool to enhance procedural safety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Depression and anxiety, prevalent coexisting mood disorders, pose a clinical challenge in accurate differentiation, hindering effective healthcare interventions. This research addressed this gap by employing a streamlined Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) designed to minimize patient response burden. Utilizing machine learning algorithms, the study sought to construct classification models capable of distinguishing between depression and anxiety. METHODS The study included 4262 individuals currently experiencing depression alone (n = 2998), anxiety alone (n = 716), or both depression and anxiety (n = 548). Counterfactual diagnosis was used to construct a causal network on the dataset. Employing a causal network, the SCL-90 was simplified. Items that have causality with only depression, only anxiety and both depression and anxiety were selected, and these streamlined items served as input features for four distinct machine learning algorithms, facilitating the creation of classification models for distinguishing depression and anxiety. RESULTS Cross-validation demonstrated the performance of the classification models with the following metrics: (1) K-nearest neighbors (AUC = 0.924, Acc = 92.81 %); (2) support vector machine (AUC = 0.937, Acc = 94.38 %); (3) random forest (AUC = 0.918, Acc = 94.38 %); and (4) adaptive boosting (AUC = 0.882, Acc = 94.38 %). Notably, the support vector machine excelled, with the highest AUC and superior accuracy. CONCLUSION Incorporating the simplified SCL-90 and machine learning presents a promising, efficient, and cost-effective tool for the precise identification of depression and anxiety.

Abstract
Detection of extracellular vesicles (EVs), particularly small EVs (sEVs), is of great significance in exploring their physiological characteristics and clinical applications. The heterogeneity of sEVs plays a crucial role in distinguishing different types of cells and diseases. Machine learning, with its exceptional data processing capabilities, offers a solution to overcome the limitations of conventional detection methods for accurately classifying sEV subtypes and sources. Principal component analysis, linear discriminant analysis, partial least squares discriminant analysis, XGBoost, support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor, and deep learning, along with some combined methods such as principal component-linear discriminant analysis, have been successfully applied in the detection and identification of sEVs. This review focuses on machine learning-assisted detection strategies for cell identification and disease prediction via sEVs, and summarizes the integration of these strategies with surface-enhanced Raman scattering, electrochemistry, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and fluorescence. The performance of different machine learning-based detection strategies is compared, and the advantages and limitations of various machine learning models are also evaluated. Finally, we discuss the merits and limitations of the current approaches and briefly outline the perspective of potential research directions in the field of sEV analysis based on machine learning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) is an important prognostic factor for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We aimed to develop and validate machine learning models that use ultrasound radiomic and descriptive semantic features to diagnose cervical LNM in patients with NSCLC. METHODS This study included NSCLC patients who underwent neck ultrasound examination followed by cervical lymph node (LN) biopsy between January 2019 and January 2022 from three institutes. Radiomic features were extracted from the ultrasound images at the maximum cross-sectional areas of cervical LNs. Logistic regression (LR) and random forest (RF) models were developed. Model performance was assessed by the area under the curve (AUC) and accuracy, validated internally and externally by fivefold cross-validation and hold-out method, respectively. RESULTS In total, 313 patients with a median age of 64 years were included, and 276 (88.18%) had cervical LNM. Three descriptive semantic features, including long diameter, shape, and corticomedullary boundary, were selected by multivariate analysis. Out of the 474 identified radiomic features, 9 were determined to fit the LR model, while 15 fit the RF model. The average AUCs of the semantic and radiomics models were 0.876 (range: 0.781-0.961) and 0.883 (range: 0.798-0.966), respectively. However, the average AUC was higher for the semantic-radiomics combined LR model (0.901; range: 0.862-0.927). When the RF algorithm was applied, the average AUCs of the radiomics and semantic-radiomics combined models were improved to 0.908 (range: 0.837-0.966) and 0.922 (range: 0.872-0.982), respectively. The models tested by the hold-out method had similar results, with the semantic-radiomics combined RF model achieving the highest AUC value of 0.901 (95% CI, 0.886-0.968). CONCLUSIONS The ultrasound radiomic models showed potential for accurately diagnosing cervical LNM in patients with NSCLC when integrated with descriptive semantic features. The RF model outperformed the conventional LR model in diagnosing cervical LNM in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
As a disease with high morbidity and high mortality, lung cancer has seriously harmed people's health. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are more important. PET/CT is usually used to obtain the early diagnosis, staging, and curative effect evaluation of tumors, especially lung cancer, due to the heterogeneity of tumors and the differences in artificial image interpretation and other reasons, it also fails to entirely reflect the real situation of tumors. Artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied to all aspects of life. Machine learning (ML) is one of the important ways to realize AI. With the help of the ML method used by PET/CT imaging technology, there are many studies in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. This article summarizes the application progress of ML based on PET/CT in lung cancer, in order to better serve the clinical. In this study, we searched PubMed using machine learning, lung cancer, and PET/CT as keywords to find relevant articles in the past 5 years or more. We found that PET/CT-based ML approaches have achieved significant results in the detection, delineation, classification of pathology, molecular subtyping, staging, and response assessment with survival and prognosis of lung cancer, which can provide clinicians a powerful tool to support and assist in critical daily clinical decisions. However, ML has some shortcomings such as slightly poor repeatability and reliability.

Abstract
Background EPs pose significant challenges to individual health and quality of life, attracting attention in public health as a risk factor for diminished quality of life and healthy life expectancy in middle-aged and older adult populations. Therefore, in the context of global aging, meticulous exploration of the factors behind emotional issues becomes paramount. Whether ADL can serve as a potential marker for EPs remains unclear. This study aims to provide new evidence for ADL as an early predictor of EPs through statistical analysis and validation using machine learning algorithms. Methods Data from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) national baseline survey, comprising 9,766 samples aged 45 and above, were utilized. ADL was assessed using the BI, while the presence of EPs was evaluated based on the record of "Diagnosed with Emotional Problems by a Doctor" in CHARLS data. Statistical analyses including independent samples t-test, chi-square test, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression were conducted using SPSS 25.0. Machine learning algorithms, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree (DT), and Logistic Regression (LR), were implemented using Python 3.10.2. Results Population demographic analysis revealed a significantly lower average BI score of 65.044 in the "Diagnosed with Emotional Problems by a Doctor" group compared to 85.128 in the "Not diagnosed with Emotional Problems by a Doctor" group. Pearson correlation analysis indicated a significant negative correlation between ADL and EPs (r = -0.165, p < 0.001). Iterative analysis using stratified multiple linear regression across three different models demonstrated the persistent statistical significance of the negative correlation between ADL and EPs (B = -0.002, β = -0.186, t = -16.476, 95% CI = -0.002, -0.001, p = 0.000), confirming its stability. Machine learning algorithms validated our findings from statistical analysis, confirming the predictive accuracy of ADL for EPs. The area under the curve (AUC) for the three models were SVM-AUC = 0.700, DT-AUC = 0.742, and LR-AUC = 0.711. In experiments using other covariates and other covariates + BI, the overall prediction level of machine learning algorithms improved after adding BI, emphasizing the positive effect of ADL on EPs prediction. Conclusion This study, employing various statistical methods, identified a negative correlation between ADL and EPs, with machine learning algorithms confirming this finding. Impaired ADL increases susceptibility to EPs.

Abstract
The elderly population is growing rapidly in the world and falls are becoming a big problem for society. Currently, clinical assessments of gait and posture include functional evaluations, objective, and subjective scales. They are considered the gold standard to indicate optimal mobility and performance individually, but their sensitivity and specificity are not good enough to predict who is at higher risk of falling. An innovative approach for fall prediction is the machine learning. Machine learning is a computer-science area that uses statistics and optimization methods in a large amount of data to make outcome predictions. Thus, to assess the performance of machine learning algorithms in classify participants by age, number of falls and falls frequency based on features extracted from a public database of stabilometric assessments. 163 participants (116 women and 47 men) between 18 and 85 years old, 44.0 to 75.9 kg mass, 140.0 to 189.8 cm tall, and 17.2 to 31.9 kg/m2 body mass index. Six different machine learning algorithms were tested for this classification, which included Logistic Regression, Linear Discriminant Analysis, K Nearest-neighbours, Decision Tree Classifier, Gaussian Naive Bayes and C-Support Vector Classification. The machine learning algorithms were applied in this database which has sociocultural, demographic, and health status information about participants. All algorithm models were able to classify the participants into young or old, but our main goal was not achieved, no model identified participants at high risk of falling. Our conclusion corroborates other works in the biomechanics field, arguing the static posturography, probably due to the low daily living activities specificity, does not have the desired effects in predicting the risk of falling. Further studies should focus on dynamic posturography to assess the risk of falls.

[PMID: 38570381 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-024-10719-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Revised: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The preoperative classification of pleomorphic adenomas (PMA) and Warthin tumors (WT) in the parotid gland plays an essential role in determining therapeutic strategies. This study aims to develop and validate an ultrasound-based ensemble machine learning (USEML) model, employing nonradiative and noninvasive features to differentiate PMA from WT. METHODS A total of 203 patients with histologically confirmed PMA or WT who underwent parotidectomy from two centers were enrolled. Clinical factors, ultrasound (US) features, and radiomic features were extracted to develop three types of machine learning model: clinical models, US models, and USEML models. The diagnostic performance of the USEML model, as well as that of physicians based on experience, was evaluated and validated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves in internal and external validation cohorts. DeLong's test was used for comparisons of AUCs. SHAP values were also utilized to explain the classification model. RESULTS The USEML model achieved the highest AUC of 0.891 (95% CI, 0.774-0.961), surpassing the AUCs of both the US (0.847; 95% CI, 0.720-0.932) and clinical (0.814; 95% CI, 0.682-0.908) models. The USEML model also outperformed physicians in both internal and external validation datasets (both p < 0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value of the USEML model and physician experience were 89.3%/75.0%, 87.5%/54.2%, 87.5%/65.6%, and 89.3%/65.0%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The USEML model, incorporating clinical factors, ultrasound factors, and radiomic features, demonstrated efficient performance in distinguishing PMA from WT in the parotid gland. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT This study developed a machine learning model for preoperative diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin tumor in the parotid gland based on clinical, ultrasound, and radiomic features. Furthermore, it outperformed physicians in an external validation dataset, indicating its potential for clinical application. KEY POINTS • Differentiating pleomorphic adenoma (PMA) and Warthin tumor (WT) affects management decisions and is currently done by invasive biopsy. • Integration of US-radiomic, clinical, and ultrasound findings in a machine learning model results in improved diagnostic accuracy. • The ultrasound-based ensemble machine learning (USEML) model consistently outperforms physicians, suggesting its potential applicability in clinical settings.

Abstract
Breast cancer, as one of the most common malignancies in women, exhibits complex and heterogeneous pathological characteristics across different subtypes. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and HER2-positive breast cancer are two common and highly invasive subtypes within breast cancer. The stability of the breast microbiota is closely intertwined with the immune environment, and immunotherapy is a common approach for treating breast cancer.Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs), recently discovered immune cell aggregates surrounding breast cancer, resemble secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and are associated with the prognosis and survival of some breast cancer patients, offering new avenues for immunotherapy. Machine learning, as a form of artificial intelligence, has increasingly been used for detecting biomarkers and constructing tumor prognosis models. This article systematically reviews the latest research progress on TLSs in breast cancer and the application of machine learning in the detection of TLSs and the study of breast cancer prognosis. The insights provided contribute valuable perspectives for further exploring the biological differences among different subtypes of breast cancer and formulating personalized treatment strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this study we aimed to develop an artificial intelligence-based model for predicting postendoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed ERCP patients at Nagoya University Hospital (NUH) and Toyota Memorial Hospital (TMH). We constructed two prediction models, a random forest (RF), one of the machine-learning algorithms, and a logistic regression (LR) model. First, we selected features of each model from 40 possible features. Then the models were trained and validated using three fold cross-validation in the NUH cohort and tested in the TMH cohort. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to assess model performance. Finally, using the output parameters of the RF model, we classified the patients into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups. RESULTS A total of 615 patients at NUH and 544 patients at TMH were enrolled. Ten features were selected for the RF model, including albumin, creatinine, biliary tract cancer, pancreatic cancer, bile duct stone, total procedure time, pancreatic duct injection, pancreatic guidewire-assisted technique without a pancreatic stent, intraductal ultrasonography, and bile duct biopsy. In the three fold cross-validation, the RF model showed better predictive ability than the LR model (AUROC 0.821 vs. 0.660). In the test, the RF model also showed better performance (AUROC 0.770 vs. 0.663, P = 0.002). Based on the RF model, we classified the patients according to the incidence of PEP (2.9%, 10.0%, and 23.9%). CONCLUSION We developed an RF model. Machine-learning algorithms could be powerful tools to develop accurate prediction models.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A northern goshawk back-propagation artificial neural network (NGO-BPANN) model was established to predict monohydroxycarbazepine (MHD) concentration in patients with epilepsy. METHODS The data were collected from 108 Han Chinese patients with epilepsy on oxcarbazepine monotherapy. The results of 14 genotype variates were selected as the input layer in the first BPANN model, and the variables that had a more significant impact on the plasma concentration of MHD were retained. With demographic characteristics and clinical laboratory test results, the genotypes of SCN1A rs2298771 and SCN2A rs17183814 were used to construct the BPANN model. The BPANN model was comprehensively validated and used to predict the MHD plasma concentration of five patients with epilepsy in our hospital. RESULTS The model demonstrated favorable fitness metrics, including a mean squared error of 0.00662, a gradient magnitude of 0.00753, an absence of validation tests amounting to zero, and a correlation coefficient of 0.980. Sex, BMI, and the genotype SCN1A rs2298771 were ranked highest by the absolute mean impact value (MIV), which is primarily associated with the concentration of MHD. The test group exhibited a range of - 20.84% to 31.03% bias between the predicted and measured values, with a correlation coefficient of 0.941 between the two. With BPANN, the MHD nadir concentration could be predicted precisely. CONCLUSION The NGO-BPANN model exhibits exceptional predictive capability and can be a practical instrument for forecasting MHD concentration in patients with epilepsy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have the potential to revolutionize the management of febrile neutropenia (FN) and drive progress toward personalized medicine. AREAS COVERED In this review, we detail how the collection of a large number of high-quality data can be used to conduct precise mathematical studies with ML and AI. We explain the foundations of these techniques, covering the fundamentals of supervised and unsupervised learning, as well as the most important challenges, e.g. data quality, 'black box' model interpretation and overfitting. To conclude, we provide detailed examples of how AI and ML have been used to enhance predictions of chemotherapy-induced FN, detection of bloodstream infections (BSIs) and multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, and anticipation of severe complications and mortality. EXPERT OPINION There is promising potential of implementing accurate AI and ML models whilst managing FN. However, their integration as viable clinical tools poses challenges, including technical and implementation barriers. Improving global accessibility, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and addressing ethical and security considerations are essential. By overcoming these challenges, we could transform personalized care for patients with FN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for machine learning (ML) algorithms in predicting postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) following spine surgery. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 986 patients who underwent spine surgery at Taizhou People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2015 to October 2022. Supervised ML algorithms included support vector machine, logistic regression, random forest, XGboost, decision tree, k-nearest neighbour, and naïve Bayes (NB), which were tested and trained to develop a predicting model. The ML model performance was evaluated from the test dataset. We gradually analysed their accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, as well as the positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and area under the curve. RESULTS The rate of SSI was 9.33%. Using a backward stepwise approach, we identified that the remarkable risk factors predicting SSI in the multi-variate Cox regression analysis were age, body mass index, smoking, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, drain duration and pre-operative albumin level. Compared with other ML algorithms, the NB model had the highest performance in seven ML models, with an average area under the curve of 0.95, sensitivity of 0.78, specificity of 0.88, and accuracy of 0.87. CONCLUSIONS The NB model in the ML algorithm had excellent calibration and accurately predicted the risk of SSI compared with the existing models, and might serve as an important tool for the early detection and treatment of SSI following spinal infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND About 30-50% of Primary Care (PC) users in Spain suffer mental health problems, mostly mild to moderate anxious and depressive symptoms, which account for 2% of Spain's total Gross domestic product and 50% of the costs associated to all mental disorders. Mobile health tools have demonstrated to cost-effectively reduce anxious and depressive symptoms while machine learning (ML) techniques have shown to accurately detect severe cases. The main aim of this project is to develop a comprehensive ML digital support platform (PRESTO) to cost-effectively screen, assess, triage, and provide personalized treatments for anxious and depressive symptoms in PC. METHODS The project will be carried out in 3 complementary phases: First, a ML predictive severity model will be built based on all the cases referred to the PC mental health support programme during the last 5 years in Catalonia. Simultaneously, a smartphone app to monitor and deliver psychological interventions for anxiety and depressive symptoms will be developed and tested in a clinical trial. Finally, the ML models and the app will be integrated in a comprehensive decision-support platform (PRESTO) which will triage and assign to each patient a specific intervention based on individual personal and clinical characteristics. The effectiveness of PRESTO to reduce waiting times in receiving mental healthcare will be tested in a stepped-wedge cluster randomized controlled trial in 5 PC centres. DISCUSSION PRESTO will offer timely and personalized cost-effective mental health treatment to people with mild to moderate anxious and depressive symptoms. This will result in a reduction of the burden of mental health problems in PC and on society as a whole. TRIAL REGISTRATION The project and their clinical trials were registered in Clinical Trials.gov: NCT04559360 (September 2020).

Abstract
In this paper, we analyze the dynamic effect of a reservoir computer (RC) on its performance. Modified Kuramoto's coupled oscillators are used to model the RC, and synchronization, Lyapunov spectrum (and dimension), Shannon entropy, and the upper bound of the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy are employed to characterize the dynamics of the RC. The performance of the RC is analyzed by reproducing the distribution of random, Gaussian, and quantum jumps series (shelved states) since a replica of the time evolution of a completely random series is not possible to generate. We demonstrate that hyperchaotic motion, moderate Shannon entropy, and a higher degree of synchronization of Kuramoto's oscillators lead to the best performance of the RC. Therefore, an appropriate balance of irregularity and order in the oscillator's dynamics leads to better performances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is a fatal cardiovascular disease, yet missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis often occur due to non-specific symptoms and signs. A simple, objective technique will help clinicians make a quick and precise diagnosis. In population studies, machine learning (ML) plays a critical role in characterizing cardiovascular risks, predicting outcomes, and identifying biomarkers. This work sought to develop an ML model for helping APE diagnosis and compare it against current clinical probability assessment models. METHODS This is a single-center retrospective study. Patients with suspected APE were continuously enrolled and randomly divided into two groups including training and testing sets. A total of 8 ML models, including random forest (RF), Naïve Bayes, decision tree, K-nearest neighbors, logistic regression, multi-layer perceptron, support vector machine, and gradient boosting decision tree were developed based on the training set to diagnose APE. Thereafter, the model with the best diagnostic performance was selected and evaluated against the current clinical assessment strategies, including the Wells score, revised Geneva score, and Years algorithm. Eventually, the ML model was internally validated to assess the diagnostic performance using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS The ML models were constructed using eight clinical features, including D-dimer, cardiac troponin T (cTNT), arterial oxygen saturation, heart rate, chest pain, lower limb pain, hemoptysis, and chronic heart failure. Among eight ML models, the RF model achieved the best performance with the highest area under the curve (AUC) (AUC = 0.774). Compared to the current clinical assessment strategies, the RF model outperformed the Wells score ( P = 0.030) and was not inferior to any other clinical probability assessment strategy. The AUC of the RF model for diagnosing APE onset in internal validation set was 0.726. CONCLUSIONS Based on RF algorithm, a novel prediction model was finally constructed for APE diagnosis. When compared to the current clinical assessment strategies, the RF model achieved better diagnostic efficacy and accuracy. Therefore, the ML algorithm can be a useful tool in assisting with the diagnosis of APE.

[PMID: 38444486 PMCID: PMC10912453 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e26960] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Although many circulating miRNAs (c-miRNAs) are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD), they are far from being the biomarker for CAD diagnosis or risk prediction. Therefore, novel c-miRNAs discovery and validation are still required, especially evaluating their prediction capacity. Objectives Identify novel CAD-related c-miRNAs and evaluate its risk prediction capacity for CAD. Methods: miRNAs associated with CAD were preliminarily investigated in three paired samples representing pre-CAD stage and CAD stage of three female individuals using the Applied Biosystems miRNA TaqMan® Low-Density Array (TLDA). Then, the candidate miRNAs were further verified in an independent case-control study including 129 CAD patients and 76 controls, and their potential practical value in prediction for CAD was evaluated using a machine learning (ML) algorithm. The accuracy of classification and prediction was assessed with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results TLDA analysis shows that miR-140-3p decreased significantly in CAD-stage (FC = -3.01, P = 0.007). Further study shows that miR-140-3p was significantly lower in CAD group [1.26 (0.68, 2.01)] than in control group [2.07 (1.19, 3.21)] (P < 0.001) and independently associated with CAD (P < 0.001). The addition of miR-140-3p to the variables including smoking history, HDL-c, and APOA1 improved the accuracy of classification by logistic regression and of prediction for CAD by ML models. The ML models built with miR-140-3p and HDL-c, respectively, had a similar prediction accuracy. The feature importance of miR-140-3p and HDL-c in the ML models was also similar. Decision curve analysis showed that miR-140-3p and HDL-c had almost identical net benefits. Conclusion Reduced levels of miR-140-3p is linked to CAD, and it is possible to use the plasma level of miR-140-3p as a means of evaluating the risk of CAD.

Abstract
Purpose Human gut microbiota has been shown to be significantly associated with various inflammatory diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to develop an excellent auxiliary tool for the diagnosis of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) based on fecal microbial biomarkers. Method The fecal metagenomic sequencing data associated with JIA were extracted from NCBI, and the sequencing data were transformed into the relative abundance of microorganisms by professional data cleaning (KneadData, Trimmomatic and Bowtie2) and comparison software (Kraken2 and Bracken). After that, the fecal microbes with high abundance were extracted for subsequent analysis. The extracted fecal microbes were further screened by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, and the selected fecal microbe biomarkers were used for model training. In this study, we constructed six different machine learning (ML) models, and then selected the best model for constructing a JIA diagnostic tool by comparing the performance of the models based on a combined consideration of area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), accuracy, specificity, F1 score, calibration curves and clinical decision curves. In addition, to further explain the model, Permutation Importance analysis and Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) were performed to understand the contribution of each biomarker in the prediction process. Result A total of 231 individuals were included in this study, including 203 JIA patients and Non-JIA individuals. In the analysis of diversity at the genus level, the alpha diversity represented by Shannon value was not significantly different between the two groups, while the belt diversity was slightly different. After selection by LASSO regression, 10 fecal microbe biomarkers were selected for model training. By comparing six different models, the XGB model showed the best performance, which average AUC, accuracy and F1 score were 0.976, 0.914 and 0.952, respectively, thus being used to construct the final JIA diagnosis model. Conclusion A JIA diagnosis model based on XGB algorithm was constructed with excellent performance, which may assist physicians in early detection of JIA patients and improve the prognosis of JIA patients.

Using Artificial Intelligence to Predict Mechanical Ventilation Weaning Success in Patients with Respiratory Failure, Including Those with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1505. [PMID: 38592696 PMCID: PMC10934889 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13051505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024] Open
Abstract
The management of mechanical ventilation (MV) remains a challenge in intensive care units (ICUs). The digitalization of healthcare and the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) has significantly influenced medical decision-making capabilities, potentially enhancing patient outcomes. Acute respiratory distress syndrome, an overwhelming inflammatory lung disease, is common in ICUs. Most patients require MV. Prolonged MV is associated with an increased length of stay, morbidity, and mortality. Shortening the MV duration has both clinical and economic benefits and emphasizes the need for better MV weaning management. AI and ML models can assist the physician in weaning patients from MV by providing predictive tools based on big data. Many ML models have been developed in recent years, dealing with this unmet need. Such models provide an important prediction regarding the success of the individual patient's MV weaning. Some AI models have shown a notable impact on clinical outcomes. However, there are challenges in integrating AI models into clinical practice due to the unfamiliar nature of AI for many physicians and the complexity of some AI models. Our review explores the evolution of weaning methods up to and including AI and ML as weaning aids.

Abstract
Acute type A aortic dissection (AAAD) has a high probability of postoperative adverse outcomes (PAO) after emergency surgery, so exploring the risk factors for PAO during hospitalization is key to reducing postoperative mortality and improving prognosis. An artificial intelligence approach was used to build a predictive model of PAO by clinical data-driven machine learning to predict the incidence of PAO after total arch repair for AAAD. This study included 380 patients with AAAD. The clinical features that are associated with PAO were selected using the LASSO regression analysis. Six different machine learning algorithms were tried for modeling, and the performance of each model was analyzed comprehensively using receiver operating characteristic curves, calibration curve, precision recall curve, and decision analysis curves. Explain the optimal model through Shapley Additive Explanation (SHAP) and perform an individualized risk assessment. After comprehensive analysis, the authors believe that the extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) model is the optimal model, with better performance than other models. The authors successfully built a prediction model for PAO in AAAD patients based on the XGBoost algorithm and interpreted the model with the SHAP method, which helps to identify high-risk AAAD patients at an early stage and to adjust individual patient-related clinical treatment plans in a timely manner.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) has come to play a pivotal role in revolutionizing medical practices, particularly in the field of pancreatic cancer detection and management. As a leading cause of cancer-related deaths, pancreatic cancer warrants innovative approaches due to its typically advanced stage at diagnosis and dismal survival rates. Present detection methods, constrained by limitations in accuracy and efficiency, underscore the necessity for novel solutions. AI-driven methodologies present promising avenues for enhancing early detection and prognosis forecasting. Through the analysis of imaging data, biomarker profiles, and clinical information, AI algorithms excel in discerning subtle abnormalities indicative of pancreatic cancer with remarkable precision. Moreover, machine learning (ML) algorithms facilitate the amalgamation of diverse data sources to optimize patient care. However, despite its huge potential, the implementation of AI in pancreatic cancer detection faces various challenges. Issues such as the scarcity of comprehensive datasets, biases in algorithm development, and concerns regarding data privacy and security necessitate thorough scrutiny. While AI offers immense promise in transforming pancreatic cancer detection and management, ongoing research and collaborative efforts are indispensable in overcoming technical hurdles and ethical dilemmas. This review delves into the evolution of AI, its application in pancreatic cancer detection, and the challenges and ethical considerations inherent in its integration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We identified predictive factors and developed a novel machine learning (ML) model for predicting mortality risk in patients with sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE). METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) and eICU Collaborative Research Database were used for model development and external validation. The primary outcome was the in-hospital mortality rate among patients with SAE; the observed in-hospital mortality rate was 14.74% (MIMIC IV: 1112, eICU: 594). Using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), we built nine ML models and a stacking ensemble model and determined the optimal model based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). We used the Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) algorithm to determine the optimal model. RESULTS The study included 9943 patients. LASSO identified 15 variables. The stacking ensemble model achieved the highest AUC on the test set (0.807) and 0.671 on external validation. SHAP analysis highlighted Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and age as key variables. The model (https://sic1.shinyapps.io/SSAAEE/) can predict in-hospital mortality risk for patients with SAE. CONCLUSIONS We developed a stacked ensemble model with enhanced generalization capabilities using novel data to predict mortality risk in patients with SAE.

Abstract
Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a severe cardiac ailment characterized by the sudden complete blockage of a portion of the coronary artery, leading to the interruption of blood supply to the myocardium. This study examines the medical records of 3205 STEMI patients admitted to the coronary care unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2014 to December 2021. In this research, a novel predictive framework for STEMI is proposed, incorporating evolutionary computational methods and machine learning techniques. A variant algorithm, AGCOSCA, is introduced by integrating crossover operation and observation bee strategy into the original Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA). The effectiveness of AGCOSCA is initially validated using IEEE CEC 2017 benchmark functions, demonstrating its ability to mitigate the deficiency in local mining after SCA random perturbation. Building upon this foundation, the AGCOSCA approach has been paired with Support Vector Machine (SVM) to forge the predictive framework referred to as AGCOSCA-SVM. Specifically, AGCOSCA is employed to refine the selection of predictors from a substantial feature set before SVM is utilized to forecast the occurrence of STEMI. In our analysis, we observed that SVM excels at managing nonlinear data relationships, a strength that becomes particularly prominent in smaller datasets of STEMI patients. To assess the effectiveness of AGCOSCA-SVM, diagnostic experiments were conducted based on the STEMI sample data. Results indicate that AGCOSCA-SVM outperforms traditional machine learning methods, achieving superior Accuracy, Sensitivity, and Specificity values of 97.83 %, 93.75 %, and 96.67 %, respectively. The selected features, such as acute kidney injury (AKI) stage, fibrinogen, mean platelet volume (MPV), free triiodothyronine (FT3), diuretics, and Killip class during hospitalization, are identified as crucial for predicting STEMI. In conclusion, AGCOSCA-SVM emerges as a promising model framework for supporting the diagnostic process of STEMI, showcasing potential applications in clinical settings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To construct a risk prediction model for assisted diagnosis of Diabetic Nephropathy (DN) using machine learning algorithms, and to validate it internally and externally. METHODS Firstly, the data was cleaned and enhanced, and was divided into training and test sets according to the 7:3 ratio. Then, the metrics related to DN were filtered by difference analysis, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE), and Max-relevance and Min-redundancy (MRMR) algorithms. Ten machine learning models were constructed based on the key variables. The best model was filtered by Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC), Precision-Recall (PR), Accuracy, Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC), and Kappa, and was internally and externally validated. Based on the best model, an online platform had been constructed. RESULTS 15 key variables were selected, and among the 10 machine learning models, the Random Forest model achieved the best predictive performance. In the test set, the area under the ROC curve was 0.912, and in two external validation cohorts, the area under the ROC curve was 0.828 and 0.863, indicating excellent predictive and generalization abilities. CONCLUSION The model has a good predictive value and is expected to help in the early diagnosis and screening of clinical DN.

Gynecology relies heavily on imaging since it offers useful visual data on the female reproductive system, leading to a deeper understanding of pathophysiological concepts. The applicability of artificial intelligence technologies has not been as noticeable in gynecologic imaging as in other medical fields so far. However, due to growing interest in this area, some studies have been performed with exciting results. From urogynecology to oncology, artificial intelligence algorithms, particularly machine learning and deep learning, have shown huge potential to revolutionize the overall healthcare experience for women's reproductive health. In this review, we aim to establish the current status of AI in gynecology, the upcoming developments in this area, and discuss the challenges facing its clinical implementation, namely the technological and ethical concerns for technology development, implementation, and accountability.

Abstract
Advances in lung cancer research applying machine learning (ML) technology have generated many relevant literature. However, there is absence of bibliometric analysis review that aids a comprehensive understanding of this field and its progress. Present article for the first time performed a bibliometric analysis to clarify research status and focus from 2010 to 2021. In the analysis, a total of 2,312 relevant literature were searched and retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We conducted a bibliometric analysis and further visualization. During that time, exponentially growing annual publication and our model have shown a flourishing research prospect. Annual citation reached the peak in 2017. Researchers from United States and China have produced most of the relevant literature and strongest partnership between them. Medical image analysis and Nature appeared to bring more attention to the public. The computer-aided diagnosis, precision medicine, and survival prediction were the focus of research, reflecting the development trend at that period. ML did make a big difference in lung cancer research in the past decade.

Abstract
Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is an aggressive oral cancer with a high incidence of metastasis and poor prognosis. We aim to identify and verify potential biomarkers for TSCC using bioinformatics analysis. To begin with, we examined clinical and RNA expression information of individuals with TSCC from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differential expression analysis and functional analysis were conducted. Multiple machine-learning strategies were next employed to screen and determine the hub gene, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to assess diagnostic value. Semaphorin3C (SEMA3C) was identified as a critical biomarker, presenting high diagnostic accuracy for TSCC. In the validation cohorts, SEMA3C exhibited high expression levels in TSCC. The high expression of SEMA3C was a poor prognostic factor in TSCC by the Kaplan-Meier curve. Based on the Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, SEMA3C was mapped in terms related to cell adhesion, positive regulation of JAK-STAT, positive regulation of stem cell maintenance, and positive regulation of NF-κB activity. Single-cell RNA sequencing (ScRNA-seq) analysis showed cells expressing SEMA3C were predominantly tumor cells. Then, we further verified that SEMA3C had high expression in TSCC clinical samples. In addition, the knockdown of SEMA3C suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of TSCC cells in vitro. This study is the first to report the involvement of SEMA3C in TSCC, suggesting that upregulated SEMA3C could be a novel and critical potential biomarker for future predictive diagnostics, prevention, prognostic assessment, and personalized medical services in TSCC.

Abstract
Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer and belongs to the category of malignant tumors of the thyroid gland. Autophagy plays an important role in PTC. The purpose of this study is to develop a novel diagnostic model using autophagy-related genes (ARGs) in patients. In this study, RNA sequencing data of PTC samples and normal samples were obtained from GSE33630 and GSE29265. Then, we analyzed GSE33630 datasets and identified 127 DE-ARGs. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that 127 DE-ARGs were mainly enriched in pathways in cancer, protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, toll-like receptor pathway, MAPK pathway, apoptosis, neurotrophin signaling pathway, and regulation of autophagy. Subsequently, CALCOCO2, DAPK1, and RAC1 among the 127 DE-ARGs were identified as diagnostic genes by support vector machine recursive feature elimination and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithms. Then, we developed a novel diagnostic model using CALCOCO2, DAPK1, and RAC1 and its diagnostic value was confirmed in GSE29265 and our cohorts. Importantly, CALCOCO2 may be a critical regulator involved in immune microenvironment because its expression was related to many types of immune cells. Overall, we developed a novel diagnostic model using CALCOCO2, DAPK1, and RAC1 which can be used as diagnostic markers of PTC.

Abstract
Forensic microbiome research is a field with a wide range of applications and a number of protocols have been developed for its use in this area of research. As individuals host radically different microbiota, the human microbiome is expected to become a new biomarker for forensic identification. To achieve an effective use of this procedure an understanding of factors which can alter the human microbiome and determinations of stable and changing elements will be critical in selecting appropriate targets for investigation. The 16S rRNA gene, which is notable for its conservation and specificity, represents a potentially ideal marker for forensic microbiome identification. Gene sequencing involving 16S rRNA is currently the method of choice for use in investigating microbiomes. While the sequencing involved with microbiome determinations can generate large multi-dimensional datasets that can be difficult to analyze and interpret, machine learning methods can be useful in surmounting this analytical challenge. In this review, we describe the research methods and related sequencing technologies currently available for application of 16S rRNA gene sequencing and machine learning in the field of forensic identification. In addition, we assess the potential value of 16S rRNA and machine learning in forensic microbiome science.

Abstract
Machine learning (ML) is an artificial intelligence technology that has been used in atmospheric pollution research due to their powerful fitting ability. In this review, 105 articles related to ML and the atmospheric pollution research are critically reviewed. Applications of ML in the prediction of atmospheric pollution (mainly particulate matters) are systematically described, including the principle of prediction, influencing factors and improvement measures. Researchers can improve the accuracy of the prediction model through three main aspects, namely considering the geographical features of the study area into the model, introducing the physical characteristics of pollutants, matching and optimizing ML models. And by using interpretable ML tools, researchers are able to understand the mechanism of the model and gain in-depth information. Then, the state-of-art applications of ML in the source apportionment of atmospheric particulate matter and the effect of atmospheric pollutants on human health are also described. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of the current applications of ML in atmospheric pollution research are summarized, and the application perspective of ML in this field is elucidated. Given the scarcity of source apportionment applications and human health research, standardized research methods and specialized ML methods are required in atmospheric pollution research to connect these two disciplines.
