Artificial intelligence for cardiovascular disease risk assessment in personalised framework: a scoping review. EClinicalMedicine 2024; 73:102660. [PMID: 38846068 PMCID: PMC11154124 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2024.102660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The field of precision medicine endeavors to transform the healthcare industry by advancing individualised strategies for diagnosis, treatment modalities, and predictive assessments. This is achieved by utilizing extensive multidimensional biological datasets encompassing diverse components, such as an individual's genetic makeup, functional attributes, and environmental influences. Artificial intelligence (AI) systems, namely machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), have exhibited remarkable efficacy in predicting the potential occurrence of specific cancers and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Methods We conducted a comprehensive scoping review guided by the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) framework. Our search strategy involved combining key terms related to CVD and AI using the Boolean operator AND. In August 2023, we conducted an extensive search across reputable scholarly databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, IEEE Xplore, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, and arXiv to gather relevant academic literature on personalised medicine for CVD. Subsequently, in January 2024, we extended our search to include internet search engines such as Google and various CVD websites. These searches were further updated in March 2024. Additionally, we reviewed the reference lists of the final selected research articles to identify any additional relevant literature. Findings A total of 2307 records were identified during the process of conducting the study, consisting of 564 entries from external sites like arXiv and 1743 records found through database searching. After 430 duplicate articles were eliminated, 1877 items that remained were screened for relevancy. In this stage, 1241 articles remained for additional review after 158 irrelevant articles and 478 articles with insufficient data were removed. 355 articles were eliminated for being inaccessible, 726 for being written in a language other than English, and 281 for not having undergone peer review. Consequently, 121 studies were deemed suitable for inclusion in the qualitative synthesis. At the intersection of CVD, AI, and precision medicine, we found important scientific findings in our scoping review. Intricate pattern extraction from large, complicated genetic datasets is a skill that AI algorithms excel at, allowing for accurate disease diagnosis and CVD risk prediction. Furthermore, these investigations have uncovered unique genetic biomarkers linked to CVD, providing insight into the workings of the disease and possible treatment avenues. The construction of more precise predictive models and personalised treatment plans based on the genetic profiles of individual patients has been made possible by the revolutionary advancement of CVD risk assessment through the integration of AI and genomics. Interpretation The systematic methodology employed ensured the thorough examination of available literature and the inclusion of relevant studies, contributing to the robustness and reliability of the study's findings. Our analysis stresses a crucial point in terms of the adaptability and versatility of AI solutions. AI algorithms designed in non-CVD domains such as in oncology, often include ideas and tactics that might be modified to address cardiovascular problems. Funding No funding received.

Construction of prediction models for novel subtypes in patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans undergoing endovascular therapy: an unsupervised machine learning study. J Cardiothorac Surg 2024; 19:370. [PMID: 38918804 PMCID: PMC11197167 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02913-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) is a chronic arterial disease that can lead to critical limb ischemia. Endovascular therapy is increasingly used for limb salvage in ASO patients, but the outcomes vary. The development of prediction models using unsupervised machine learning may lead to the identification of novel subtypes to guide patient prognosis and treatment. METHODS This retrospective study analyzed clinical data from 448 patients with ASOs who underwent endovascular therapy. Unsupervised machine learning algorithms were employed to identify subgroups. To validate the precision of the clustering outcomes, an analysis of the postoperative results of the clusters was conducted. A prediction model was constructed using binary logistic regression. RESULTS Two distinct subgroups were identified by unsupervised machine learning and characterized by differing patterns of clinical features. Patients in Cluster 2 had significantly worse conditions and prognoses than those in Cluster 1. For the novel ASO subtypes, a nomogram was developed using six predictive factors, namely, platelet count, ankle brachial index, Rutherford category, operation method, hypertension, and diabetes status. The nomogram achieved excellent discrimination for predicting membership in the two identified clusters, with an area under the curve of 0.96 and 0.95 in training cohort and internal test cohort. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that unsupervised machine learning can reveal novel phenotypic subgroups of patients with varying prognostic risk who underwent endovascular therapy. The prediction model developed could support clinical decision-making and risk counseling for this complex patient population. Further external validation is warranted to assess the generalizability of the findings.

Arch Clin Neuropsychol 2024:acae050. [PMID: 38916192 DOI: 10.1093/arclin/acae050] [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: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are associated with a range of negative health outcomes, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and neurocognitive deficits. This study identified symptom profiles in adult patients undergoing neuropsychological evaluations for ADHD and examined the association between these profiles and ACEs. METHODS Utilizing unsupervised machine learning models, the study analyzed data from 208 adult patients. RESULTS The Gaussian Mixture Model revealed two distinct symptom profiles: "Severely Impaired" and "Moderately Impaired". The "Severely Impaired" profile, 23.6% of the sample, was characterized by more severe ADHD symptomatology in childhood and worse neurocognitive performance. The "Moderately Impaired" profile, 76.4% of the sample, had scores in the average range for self-reported internalizing and externalizing psychopathology and better neurocognitive performance. There was a greater number of ACEs reported by patients in the Severely Impaired profile than the Moderately Impaired profile (p = .022). Specifically, using an ACEs cutoff of ≥4, 53.1% of patients in the Severely Impaired profile reported four or more ACEs, compared with 34.6% in the Moderately Impaired profile (p = .020). Profiles were not related to clinician-ascribed diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Findings underscore the association between ACEs and worse symptom profiles marked by impaired neurocognitive function, increased internalizing and externalizing psychopathology, and heightened perceived stress in adults with ADHD. Future research may explore the effect of ACEs on symptom profiles in diverse populations and potential moderators or mediators of these associations. Findings offers valuable insights for clinicians in their assessment and treatment planning.

Abstract
The block design test (BDT) has been used for over a century in research and clinical contexts as a measure of spatial cognition, both as a singular ability and as part of more comprehensive intelligence assessment. Traditionally, the BDT has been scored using methods that do not reflect the full potential of individual differences that could be measured by the test. Recent advancements in technology, including eye-tracking, embedded sensor systems, and artificial intelligence, have provided new opportunities to measure and analyze data from the BDT. In this methodological review, we outline the information that BDT can assess, review several recent advancements in measurement and analytic methods, discuss potential future uses of these methods, and advocate for further research using these methods.

Abstract
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) recently becomes one of the most important mental health concerns. However, no previous study has comprehensively reviewed the application of big data and machine learning (ML) techniques in PTSD. We found 873 studies meet the inclusion criteria and a total of 31 of those in a sample of 210,001 were included in quantitative analysis. ML algorithms were able to discriminate PTSD with an overall accuracy of 0.89. Pooled estimates of classification accuracy from multi-dimensional data (0.96) are higher than single data types (0.86 to 0.90). ML techniques can effectively classify PTSD and models using multi-dimensional data perform better than those using single data types. While selecting optimal combinations of data types and ML algorithms to be clinically applied at the individual level still remains a big challenge, these findings provide insights into the classification, identification, diagnosis and treatment of PTSD.

A Machine Learning Model Demonstrates Excellent Performance in Predicting Subscapularis Tears Based on Pre-Operative Imaging Parameters Alone. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1044-1055. [PMID: 37716627 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.08.084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a machine learning model capable of identifying subscapularis tears before surgery based on imaging and physical examination findings. METHODS Between 2010 and 2020, 202 consecutive shoulders underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair by a single surgeon. Patient demographics, physical examination findings (including range of motion, weakness with internal rotation, lift/push-off test, belly press test, and bear hug test), and imaging (including direct and indirect signs of tearing, biceps status, fatty atrophy, cystic changes, and other similar findings) were included for model creation. RESULTS Sixty percent of the shoulders had partial or full thickness tears of the subscapularis verified during surgery (83% of these were upper third). Using only preoperative imaging-related parameters, the XGBoost model demonstrated excellent performance at predicting subscapularis tears (c-statistic, 0.84; accuracy, 0.85; F1 score, 0.87). The top 5 features included direct signs related to the presence of tearing as evidenced on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (changes in tendon morphology and signal), as well as the quality of the MRI and biceps pathology. CONCLUSIONS In this study, machine learning was successful in predicting subscapularis tears by MRI alone in 85% of patients, and this accuracy did not decrease by isolating the model to the top features. The top five features included direct signs related to the presence of tearing as evidenced on MRI (changes in tendon morphology and signal), as well as the quality of the MRI and biceps pathology. Last, in advanced modeling, the addition of physical examination or patient characteristics did not make a significant difference in the predictive ability of this model. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, diagnostic case-control study.

Unsupervised Machine Learning of the Combined Danish and Norwegian Knee Ligament Registers: Identification of 5 Distinct Patient Groups With Differing ACL Revision Rates. Am J Sports Med 2024; 52:881-891.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most clinical machine learning applications use a supervised learning approach using labeled variables. In contrast, unsupervised learning enables pattern detection without a prespecified outcome. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to apply unsupervised learning to the combined Danish and Norwegian knee ligament register (KLR) with the goal of detecting distinct subgroups. It was hypothesized that resulting groups would have differing rates of subsequent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) revision. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS K-prototypes clustering was performed on the complete case KLR data. After performing the unsupervised learning analysis, the authors defined clinically relevant characteristics of each cluster using variable summaries, surgeons' domain knowledge, and Shapley Additive exPlanations analysis. RESULTS Five clusters were identified. Cluster 1 (revision rate, 9.9%) patients were young (mean age, 22 years; SD, 6 years), received hamstring tendon (HT) autograft (91%), and had lower baseline Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Sport and Recreation (Sports) scores (mean, 25.0; SD, 15.6). Cluster 2 (revision rate, 6.9%) patients received HT autograft (89%) and had higher baseline KOOS Sports scores (mean, 67.2; SD, 16.5). Cluster 3 (revision rate, 4.7%) patients received bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) or quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft (94%) and had higher baseline KOOS Sports scores (mean, 65.8; SD, 16.4). Cluster 4 (revision rate, 4.1%) patients received BPTB or QT autograft (88%) and had low baseline KOOS Sports scores (mean, 20.5; SD, 14.0). Cluster 5 (revision rate, 3.1%) patients were older (mean age, 42 years; SD, 7 years), received HT autograft (89%), and had low baseline KOOS Sports scores (mean, 23.4; SD, 17.6). CONCLUSION Unsupervised learning identified 5 distinct KLR patient subgroups and each grouping was associated with a unique ACLR revision rate. Patients can be approximately classified into 1 of the 5 clusters based on only 3 variables: age, graft choice (HT, BPTB, or QT autograft), and preoperative KOOS Sports subscale score. If externally validated, the resulting groupings may enable quick risk stratification for future patients undergoing ACLR in the clinical setting. Patients in cluster 1 are considered high risk (9.9%), cluster 2 patients medium risk (6.9%), and patients in clusters 3 to 5 low risk (3.1%-4.7%) for revision ACLR.

[PMID: 38066043 PMCID: PMC10709300 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-47979-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
We examined the associations between electroencephalogram (EEG)-based sleep characteristics and physical health parameters in general adults via a cross-sectional study recruiting 100 volunteers aged 30-59 years. Sleep characteristics were measured at home using a portable multichannel electroencephalography recorder. Using the k-means + + clustering method, according to 10 EEG-based parameters, participants were grouped into better (n = 39), middle (n = 46), and worse (n = 15) sleep groups. Comparing 50 physical health parameters among the groups, we identified four signals of difference (P < 0.05), including systolic (sBP) and diastolic blood pressure (dBP), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GTP), and serum creatinine, where sBP reached a Bonferroni-corrected threshold (P < 0.001). The sBP was higher by 7.9 (95% confidence interval 1.9-13.9) and 15.7 (7.3-24.0) mmHg before adjustment and 5.4 (- 0.1-10.9) and 8.7 (1.1-16.3) mmHg after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, smoking, drinking habits, and 3% oxygen desaturation index in the middle and worse sleep groups, respectively, than in the better group. As another approach, among 500 combinations of EEG-based and physical health parameters, there were 45 signals of correlation, of which 4 (N1% and sBP, dBP, γ-GTP, and triglycerides) reached a Bonferroni-corrected threshold (P < 0.0001). Thus, EEG-based sleep characteristics are associated with several physical health parameters, particularly sBP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gout comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders; however, comorbidities have been the focus of most efforts to classify disease subgroups. OBJECTIVES We applied cluster analysis using musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) combined with clinical and laboratory findings in patients with gout to identify disease phenotypes, and differences across clusters were investigated. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with gout who complied with the ACR/EULAR classification criteria were enrolled in the Egyptian College of Rheumatology (ECR)-MSUS Study Group, a multicenter study. Selected variables included demographic, clinical, and laboratory findings. MSUS scans assessed the bilateral knee and first metatarsophalangeal joints. We performed a K-mean cluster analysis and compared the features of each cluster. RESULTS 425 patients, 267 (62.8 %) males, mean age 54.2 ± 10.3 years were included. Three distinct clusters were identified. Cluster 1 (n = 138, 32.5 %) has the lowest burden of the disease and a lower frequency of MSUS characteristics than the other clusters. Cluster 2 (n = 140, 32.9 %) was mostly women, with a low rate of urate-lowering treatment (ULT). Cluster 3 (n = 147, 34.6 %) has the highest disease burden and the greatest proportion of comorbidities. Significant MSUS variations were found between clusters 2 and 3: joint effusion (p < 0.0001; highest: cluster 3), power Doppler signal (p < 0.0001; highest: clusters 2), and aggregates of crystal deposition (p < 0.0001; highest: cluster 3). CONCLUSION Cluster analysis using MSUS findings identified three gout subgroups. People with more MSUS features were more likely to receive ULT. Treatment should be tailored according to the cluster and MSUS features.

Artificial intelligence-based analyses of varus leg alignment and after high tibial osteotomy show high accuracy and reproducibility. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2023; 31:5885-5895. [PMID: 37975938 PMCID: PMC10719140 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-023-07644-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based software for fully automated analysis of leg alignment pre- and postoperatively after high tibial osteotomy (HTO) on long-leg radiographs (LLRs). METHODS Long-leg radiographs of 95 patients with varus malalignment that underwent medial open-wedge HTO were analyzed pre- and postoperatively. Three investigators and an AI software using deep learning algorithms (LAMA™, ImageBiopsy Lab, Vienna, Austria) evaluated the hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), mechanical axis deviation (MAD), joint line convergence angle (JLCA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), and mechanical lateral distal femoral angle (mLDFA). All measurements were performed twice and the performance of the AI software was compared with individual human readers using a Bayesian mixed model. In addition, the inter-observer intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for inter-observer reliability was evaluated by comparing measurements from manual readers. The intra-reader variability for manual measurements and the AI-based software was evaluated using the intra-observer ICC. RESULTS Initial varus malalignment was corrected to slight valgus alignment after HTO. Measured by the AI algorithm and manually HKA (5.36° ± 3.03° and 5.47° ± 2.90° to - 0.70 ± 2.34 and - 0.54 ± 2.31), MAD (19.38 mm ± 11.39 mm and 20.17 mm ± 10.99 mm to - 2.68 ± 8.75 and - 2.10 ± 8.61) and MPTA (86.29° ± 2.42° and 86.08° ± 2.34° to 91.6 ± 3.0 and 91.81 ± 2.54) changed significantly from pre- to postoperative, while JLCA and mLDFA were not altered. The fully automated AI-based analyses showed no significant differences for all measurements compared with manual reads neither in native preoperative radiographs nor postoperatively after HTO. Mean absolute differences between the AI-based software and mean manual observer measurements were 0.5° or less for all measurements. Inter-observer ICCs for manual measurements were good to excellent for all measurements, except for JLCA, which showed moderate inter-observer ICCs. Intra-observer ICCs for manual measurements were excellent for all measurements, except for JLCA and for MPTA postoperatively. For the AI-aided analyses, repeated measurements showed entirely consistent results for all measurements with an intra-observer ICC of 1.0. CONCLUSIONS The AI-based software can provide fully automated analyses of native long-leg radiographs in patients with varus malalignment and after HTO with great accuracy and reproducibility and could support clinical workflows. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Diagnostic study, Level III.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review delves into the potential of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly machine learning (ML), in enhancing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) risk assessment, diagnosis, and personalized treatment. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies have demonstrated the superiority of ML algorithms over traditional multivariate statistical models in donor selection for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. ML has recently enabled dynamic risk assessment by modeling time-series data, an upgrade from the static, "snapshot" assessment of patients that conventional statistical models and older ML algorithms offer. Regarding diagnosis, a deep learning model, a subset of ML, can accurately identify skin segments affected with chronic GVHD with satisfactory results. ML methods such as Q-learning and deep reinforcement learning have been utilized to develop adaptive treatment strategies (ATS) for the personalized prevention and treatment of acute and chronic GVHD. SUMMARY To capitalize on these promising advancements, there is a need for large-scale, multicenter collaborations to develop generalizable ML models. Furthermore, addressing pertinent issues such as the implementation of stringent ethical guidelines is crucial before the widespread introduction of AI into GVHD care.

Abstract
The pharmaceutical industry has entered an era of transformation with the emergence of Pharma 4.0, which leverages cutting-edge technologies in manufacturing processes. These hold tremendous potential for enhancing the overall efficiency, safety, and quality of non-biological complex drugs (NBCDs), a category of pharmaceutical products that pose unique challenges due to their intricate composition and complex manufacturing requirements. This review attempts to provide insight into the application of select Pharma 4.0 technologies, namely machine learning, in silico modeling, and 3D printing, in the manufacturing process of NBCDs. Specifically, it reviews the impact of these tools on NBCDs such as liposomes, polymeric micelles, glatiramer acetate, iron carbohydrate complexes, and nanocrystals. It also addresses regulatory challenges associated with the implementation of these technologies and presents potential future perspectives, highlighting the incorporation of digital twins in this field of research as it seems to be a very promising approach, namely for the optimization of NBCDs manufacturing processes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Four-chambered stomach including the forestomachs (rumen, reticulum, and omasum) and abomasum allows ruminants convert plant fiber into high-quality animal products. The early development of this four-chambered stomach is crucial for the health and well-being of young ruminants, especially the immune development. However, the dynamics of immune development are poorly understood. RESULTS We investigated the early gene expression patterns across the four-chambered stomach in Hu sheep, at 5, 10, 15, and 25 days of age. We found that forestomachs share similar gene expression patterns, all four stomachs underwent widespread activation of both innate and adaptive immune responses from d 5 to 25, whereas the metabolic function were significantly downregulated with age. We constructed a cell landscape of the four-chambered stomach using single-cell sequencing. Integrating transcriptomic and single-cell transcriptomic analyses revealed that the immune-associated module hub genes were highly expressed in T cells, monocytes and macrophages, as well as the defense-associated module hub genes were highly expressed in endothelial cells in the four-stomach tissues. Moreover, the non-immune cells such as epithelial cells play key roles in immune maturation. Cell communication analysis predicted that in addition to immune cells, non-immune cells recruit immune cells through macrophage migration inhibitory factor signaling in the forestomachs. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that the immune and defense responses of four stomachs are quickly developing with age in lamb's early life. We also identified the gene expression patterns and functional cells associated with immune development. Additionally, we identified some key receptors and signaling involved in immune regulation. These results help to understand the early life immune development at single-cell resolution, which has implications to develop nutritional manipulation and health management strategies based on specific targets including key receptors and signaling pathways.

Till SE, Lu Y, Reinholz AK, Boos AM, Krych AJ, Okoroha KR, Camp CL. Artificial Intelligence Can Define and Predict the "Optimal Observed Outcome" After Anterior Shoulder Instability Surgery: An Analysis of 200 Patients With 11-Year Mean Follow-Up. Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil 2023; 5:100773. [PMID: 37520500 PMCID: PMC10382895 DOI: 10.1016/j.asmr.2023.100773] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to use unsupervised machine learning clustering to define the "optimal observed outcome" after surgery for anterior shoulder instability (ASI) and to identify predictors for achieving it. Methods Medical records, images, and operative reports were reviewed for patients <40 years old undergoing surgery for ASI. Four unsupervised machine learning clustering algorithms partitioned subjects into "optimal observed outcome" or "suboptimal outcome" based on combinations of actually observed outcomes. Demographic, clinical, and treatment variables were compared between groups using descriptive statistics and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Variables were assessed for prognostic value through multivariate stepwise logistic regression. Results Two hundred patients with a mean follow-up of 11 years were included. Of these, 146 (64%) obtained the "optimal observed outcome," characterized by decreased: postoperative pain (23% vs 52%; P < 0.001), recurrent instability (12% vs 41%; P < 0.001), revision surgery (10% vs 24%; P = 0.015), osteoarthritis (OA) (5% vs 19%; P = 0.005), and restricted motion (161° vs 168°; P = 0.001). Forty-one percent of patients had a "perfect outcome," defined as ideal performance across all outcomes. Time from initial instability to presentation (odds ratio [OR] = 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92-0.98; P = 0.006) and habitual/voluntary instability (OR = 0.17; 95% CI, 0.04-0.77; P = 0.020) were negative predictors of achieving the "optimal observed outcome." A predilection toward subluxations rather than dislocations before surgery (OR = 1.30; 95% CI, 1.02-1.65; P = 0.030) was a positive predictor. Type of surgery performed was not a significant predictor. Conclusion After surgery for ASI, 64% of patients achieved the "optimal observed outcome" defined as minimal postoperative pain, no recurrent instability or OA, low revision surgery rates, and increased range of motion, of whom only 41% achieved a "perfect outcome." Positive predictors were shorter time to presentation and predilection toward preoperative subluxations over dislocations. Level of Evidence Retrospective cohort, level IV.

The Application of Deep Learning to Electroencephalograms, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Implants for the Detection of Epileptic Seizures: A Narrative Review. Cureus 2023; 15:e42460.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures affecting millions worldwide. Medically intractable seizures in epilepsy patients are not only detrimental to the quality of life but also pose a significant threat to their safety. Outcomes of epilepsy therapy can be improved by early detection and intervention during the interictal window period. Electroencephalography is the primary diagnostic tool for epilepsy, but accurate interpretation of seizure activity is challenging and highly time-consuming. Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms enable us to analyze complex EEG data, which can not only help us diagnose but also locate epileptogenic zones and predict medical and surgical treatment outcomes. DL models such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), inspired by visual processing, can be used to classify EEG activity. By applying preprocessing techniques, signal quality can be enhanced by denoising and artifact removal. DL can also be incorporated into the analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, which can help in the localization of epileptogenic zones in the brain. Proper detection of these zones can help in good neurosurgical outcomes. Recent advancements in DL have facilitated the implementation of these systems in neural implants and wearable devices, allowing for real-time seizure detection. This has the potential to transform the management of drug-refractory epilepsy. This review explores the application of ML and DL techniques to Electroencephalograms (EEGs), MRI, and wearable devices for epileptic seizure detection. This review briefly explains the fundamentals of both artificial intelligence (AI) and DL, highlighting these systems' potential advantages and undeniable limitations.
